This my first thought, but reading some of the reviews, I'm a bit dubious.

Have you used them mate?

I've used them before and found it a great service. Was moving home and needed to clear some space so sold like 40 odd Dvd's for bout 150 quid. You get more for newer ones than old. You just stick em in a box, print the label and they come pick it up for you.

Dunno if you'd get more money doing it on eBay but that's just a ton of work for little reward.

£150? Jesus Navas!
Didn't think it would be that much.

I've got literally hundreds, old (ish) and some new.
Gonna be moving out within the next fewomths of so hopefully, so need to just get rid.

if they're regular DVDs (not BlueRay) you'd be lucky to get one pound twenty for them over here; the pawn shops can't do better than $2 a pop, although I've not seen what individual titles are going for on Ebay (a bit too much work listing things individually) - the bottom has fallen out of the market in recent years.

* if there's no service or bulk buyer you know of, you can still list on Ebay as a bulk lot and let it rip... someone will buy them.<br /><br />-- Tue Feb 25, 2014 5:06 am --<br /><br />

Sell them privately if you can. CEX, Music Magpie or similar will give you pennies for them in comparison. If you're at a big place of work then see if you can sell them via a bulletin board / forum for £3 each or 4 for £10 etc. DVDs aren't worth all that now streaming is so popular but not everyone uses that.

this would seem to be it; I used to buy up films I liked, but it's getting to the point when you can just stream anything you want - admittedly without the 'special extras' & the days of keeping hard copies (nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more) at home is closer to becoming obsolete.
 
That Music Magpie is dog crap, I spent half an hour putting the ISBN's for a box of dvds and they were averaging 10p each, in the end I took them to one of the charity shops, for the 15 quid they wanted to scam me for on MM I thought someone else may as well benefit!

I know a shop called That's Entertainment also buy them from MM etc and re-sell as well as selling brand new

I know this might sound an odd question, but what do Music Magpie do with them, do they sell them on or something?

I think Music Mapgie are affiliated with That's Entertainment! who have a retail outlet or two around Manchester.
 
I just moved and got rid if a ton of DVDs id seen or are now on netflix and a ton of CDs all of which are now ripped to my nas media storage. Got about £450 for the lot in 6 boxes, all picked up free. Used my iphone to scan them in, took about 2 hours. I was struggling to know what to do with them otherwise - top service.
 
I remember someone selling a good 200 CD albums through work where he put them all on a spreadsheet and sold £3 for £10. We had a couple of thousand in the building and they pretty much all went.
