Got loads of DVDs, CDs and Blu Rays I wanna get rid of.

Can't be bothered with the hassle of the bay and don't think they'll sell well anyway.

What is the best website/company to sell to for ease and good price?

I know some friends have sold like 100s of CDs and only got like £50, but I need to clear up the space.

This is probably not the answer you was expecting but I do recommend selling them separately. Do a quick search on ebay completed listings, and start selling those that fetch the most. Rather than doing it all at once, maybe do 5-10 a week.

I had a collection of collectable cards and I slowly started selling the high value ones first.
 
I was clearing out of the loft today and still have about 50 odd DVD. Downloaded Musicmagpie app for iphone and started scanning the DVD's.

Basically 30p or thereabout is all you get per dvd for older ones (most of mine are 1999-2005 or so). At the end of the day, it's not great value but it's £15 or £20 for some DVD's that have sat in the loft for 3 or 4 years.

I tried selling some at a local outdoor market/carboot sale but even there people wanted 2 or 3 for a £1, tried even 50p but no luck.

a quick look on ebay and most of the dvd's i could find are going for 30-60p but with the hassle of postage, insertion fees etc - i think i'll just punt them to musicmagpie.

Yea I think I will for the valuable ones.

Just downloaded the musicmagpie app, scanned 4 Blu Ray box sets (Matrix, Bourne, Terminator and oceans) and it offered £7 :)

Got loads of DVD tho that won't sell for more than a pound.

Might put them all up as a job lot.
 
i used music magpie before xmas was hassle free.

Download the app for your phone and scan them,complete the list and they send a courier to pick up the box,2 weeks later and the money is in your bank account.

easy :)
 
You could try Members Market when you meet the criteria (1,000 posts and have been a member for 180 days) but that's something you'd have to wait for and it might not be a route you want to go down anyway.
