How to sell a ton of CD's

zla vydra · Post by **zla vydra** » Fri July 6th, 2018, 11:53 am

I have approximately 2,500 metal CD's that I would like to liquidate. Let's say I got a late start on transferring files to a digital format.
The discs range from rare items (stuff I bought in Europe in the 90s) to run-of-the-mill (big-4 stuff, etc.) Any tips on the best way to turn these into cash? My initial plan is to try to sell the rarer ones piece by piece (modulistic terror) on a site like discogs and then try to find a store to buy the rest for $1-$2 each. Any ideas?

The only way to sell them
Is listing PIECE BY PIECE

I have about 100 listed on Discogs. Search under zlavydra. I busted out laughing when someone paid me $65 for the Metalmind reissue ofSlaughter in the Vatican.

I forwarded your discog listings to a friend that's still collecting CDs.

How has this worked out?

I've decided to liquidate my CD collection, too. I was slow to adopt the medium and then pretty much switched to mp3's when they became available.

Making a killing on discogs, as long as the discs are sought after and in good shape. I listed 1000 and have sold 400 so far. Some have gone for over $100.

I unloaded about 650 at Book Nook on N. Druid Hills for $400 cash.

Damn. Both of you getting rid of CD's? Zla, how long ago did you take your haul to Book Nook? And Knuck, you mostly selling on Discogs?

It's been about a month.

Ya -- I haven't put anything up for sale yet, but have been slowly adding CD's.

I'm too lazy to add eBay or whatever into the mix.

Based on the lack of response early, I didn't think anyone here was interested. Check out https://www.discogs.com/seller/zlavydra/profile
