Best Place/Way To Sell My CD Collection?



Sorry if this is a little off topic for this forum but I'm about to sell my CD collection, roughly 1000 CD's, and I'm looking for input on the best way to take this task on. I'm guessing many of you have either done this already or considered it, any thoughts? I'd prefer to do it as a lot rather than one/two at a time, seem doable?

Many thanks for all of your thoughts, folks. Interesting comments, I expected them to have a little more value than that but not too much ($4-5 ?). Along with here, I have also thought of listing on Discogs if I were to do them individually. No way I'd sell them all for a couple hundred bucks. I'd box em all up for a rainy day at that number.

I really appreciate the comments. Think it's going to be a project.
Guys, thanks so much for all of your thoughts, experience
etc. Sorry that I have not responded sooner, been in the
midst of a troubling time that has kept me away. I lost my
dog Elvis yesterday. He'd been very ill. Nothing means more
to me than my dog's. Not my gear, music, wife (sorry
hon)...nothing. That makes this so very hard, I'm sure there
are some of you that understand this. Anyway, that is part
of what led up to this as I thought it was a decent way to
raise some cash to cover some of the related expense. I did
not want to get into selling off my system but sure would be
fine losing the discs.

Lot's of great comments. Maplegrovemusic in particular given
the extent of his experience, but really all of the input is
helpful. I think as I get my head back together I may test
the Ebay waters. I also need to compile a list for those who
did inquire about the lot. Without a list it is impossible
to explain.

Vicks7 - there are not too many jazz albums and no classical
so this may not be for you. I'd guess maybe 50 jazz titles
if that.

Loomis - C'mon man! Seriously, give her another chance. The
chick is brilliant:) In fact, I recently hooked my DTV box u
to the web so I could watch YouTube on my big boy rig. There
is a full Laura Marling concert on YouTube with good sound
and video. I loved it!

A special thanks to Madfloyd and Jax2 for all your support
lately. Just shows how this forum/hobby can be a much bigger
part of life than just our gear.
