What to do with a large collection


I have thousands of CDs and records and am looking to get rid of most of them. i can’t possibly listen to them in my remaining years and my wife doesn’t need them. CDs, it turns out, are not very viable these days, and if you want to sell them to a dealer you can only get store credit!! And, if as in my case, the collection is 90% classical, it seems they will be impossible to unload. Since CDs are antiques these days, I can’t imagine ANYONE who would want them. The only alternative I can see is the garbage. When you consider just how much of an investment they were it’s indeed a sobering realization.
Records are indeed “in,” but how desirable are classical LP’s?

Any suggestions?

Thanks to all who have provided suggestions.  
I have to decide if I want to sell in bulk or individually.  It seems a shame to have forked over so much money and wind up with nothing.
Declutter might work out for me if I have the patience to scroll thousands of bar codes.
If I want to recoup some of my investment I’ll have to do the work and list discs individually on eBay or Amazon. Maybe I’ll start with the records.
I’m not yet certain how I’m going to go about disposing of everything

Hi. Would definitely be interested in purchasing your collection. If you don’t mind, where are you located?

I've purchased collection of North of 100K records at least twice. I don't think I've paid more than dime pre piece doin' that...

So how large is yours?
