Walked up the shop to get a few beers ...someone left a bag of DVDs out ...whacked em up on music magpie in about an hour ..got about £50

Here's an idea, .... For Sale, 724 Classical Cds ... £250 the lot . 🤔😁

@TheBudgie29 3 года назад

Charity's round here have a load more than that, and can't get £50 the lot. And all have stopped taking them in from about five years or so now, that's CD's and DVD's, They might take a few Blu-rays, depends what they are. Before the pandemic at the end of the Boot Sale, when everyone has gone, there would be box's of them just dumped on the side. I remember the scene in Back to the Future 2, when they land in the alley, There were loads of Laser Disc's wrapped for the Garbage. Laser Disc! was still relatively new at the time. Mind you we were watching the film on the, then Brand new VHS Machine. Go-Figger.

Great video nick, with the cds that have no value you can sale the cases for 1.25 on ebay as a repayment blank case or bulk them like 5 for 5, one listting and let it tick over I do it with dvd cases. Thanks for the content.

I usually spend around an hour in the evening a couple of times a week scanning media in. I definitely think it's worthwhile even if a little mind numbing. I have 2 boxes sat in my car to drop off for ziffit.

@TheBudgie29 3 года назад

I don't think that people really appreciate the fact that the bulk of the first ever released CD's, in the UK were Classical CD's, The sound on these will outclass, any of the Pumped up to 12 disc's we have been getting over the last 10 or so years. I have been getting CD's long before they became Commercially available to the Public. (ABBA - The Arrival) being the first. They were the Japanese 3" disc's, as i was a club DJ at the time. They came with a Adapter ring they kept falling out of. By the time the Players manufacturers put the little 3" dink in the tray, the 5" had taken over. Thanks for sharing.

@TechBaffle 3 года назад

Now if there was a website that could compare prices from all of them - that would be cool

@78vinyl97 4 года назад

I always find ziffit the best of the bunch and also use the same method looking on Amazon and Ebay if offered high prices.also works with books and DVDs as well.

@geoffduke1763 4 года назад

I use ziffit as well when I am out as it is a lot faster than the Amazon app and you can take the item home and check it on Amazon later. The only problem I have is my phone will very rarely scan CD barcodes and I have to input them manually, which is annoying. I bought a bluetooth scanner but it will only work with Ebay.

@JamesSmith-ru7mm 4 года назад

I deal in vinyl and have a couple of people locally who I sell job lots too. Recently I paid £50 for around 175-200 dance records (mainly house music and mainly 12” singles with a few LP’s). I looked them all up on discogs and anything I could list for sale at £5 or over I kept and the rest I joblotted. I ended up keeping 9 for myself and 28 to resell so the others (sure it was around 155 records) I sold to a mate who also collects and buys and sells records in a joblot for £50. That covers my outlay and was nothing of any consequence in them he should be able to double his money on them as he always has with previous lots of records I’ve sold him. Not worth the time listing records on discogs for under £5 as they take ages to sell and just take up space so I always clear the below £5 stuff out in a bulk usually for what I’ve paid for everything and just keep the better stuff to resell plus anything I want to keep and it’s all paid for before I even start listing any of it.

@rewindresells47 4 года назад

@NicHills 4 года назад

Bear in mind that this was classical which tends to sell better than a lot of bog standard pop/rock

@rewindresells47 4 года назад

Nic & Andrea Hills I find classical on cassette tape sells really well. Generally to Asia.

@dorsetbookbuyer8701 4 года назад

Thanks nick, great videos. I have tried this with mixed bundles of CDs, DVDs, and books. The problem I have with ziffit and webuybooks is that they only let you send in a title once. Where as music magpie will offer less but you can spend in the same title CD more than once as long as it is not in the same box/offer. I don't know if you have found this? or in anyone has any ideas how to get around it?

This was a big help to me nic as I had recently inherited 100 classic cds mostly pavarotti and dvds my uncle was a massive collector of his work and in total he had nearly 1000 plus dvds so thanks big help did sell some to ziffit so will check others now but yes your rite its laborious xx regards sue

Ziffit were the best for me. However two sealed cd's were rejected as "not original disc", go figure? Also the same as you, looked up the ones that were £1+ and maybe 1 or 2 were worth keeping.

@SR-sw5ih 8 месяцев назад

How many did you sell and how many did they reject once they inspected them so how much did u loose

@anthonyheaton5798 3 года назад

I was interested to see what Music Magpie offered. It is annoying that my local Oxfam will sell to them for that price instead of offering a reduction to their regular customers. MM claim to check all discs but I've had faulty ones from them. (They are quick to give a refund.) But one I bought for a friend recently cost £6.99. I think you did well and the profit isn't everything. There is value in the experience & you're learning all the time. I've watched you going through pop cd's that you've sold & you seem to remember every one. Looking forward to boot sales opening up again.

@adamw.p.6287 2 года назад

I've tried music magpie only as an experiment. It boggles me why they will only offer 2 pence for a rare soundtrack CD that's worth over £150 pounds. I've also inputted the barcodes of various rare PS2 games, and they offer the same price ranges of 2 to 10 pence. A big con I think, only useful if you want to get rid of a bulk load of worthless CD's and DVD's.

@journeyman79 3 года назад

Great video, I do this regular scanning DVD’s and games had some good prices but also research eBay for more profit, getting to know what games to look for in bundles now so can make money back on just a game or two on eBay.

@lyricaldetective4310 2 года назад

A few years ago (Before people knew about CeX prices or even checked) I used to buy second hand Xbox/PS4 games and re-sell STRAIGHT to CEX and make like £20+ because people don’t know prices or alternative buyers

@prestonne2673 4 года назад

I use Ziffit and Music Magpie to clear CDs, DVDs and books, Never tried We Buy Books and Momox but will do next time 🙂 Cheers for the info Nic.

@steveusually989 4 года назад

All the cd's and dvd's in our local charity shop are 10 pence each. I have only bought the Now ones and all the audio books, but there are hundreds from U2 to Adele and Red Hot Chilli Peppers to Kylie, to classical, and plenty of Disney dvd's., its just not something I'm to interested in buying.

@retrospacetrader9630 4 года назад

I've done this with 400 CDs and 500 DVDs before, similar outcome. Out of interest Nic, did you swap any high value CD cases to ensure they don't get rejected? I have found that Disc condition doesnt matter as much as case condition, i think they actually might even clean and possibly re-box some or all for services such as 'REPLAY' in poundland ETC... just a hunch. Great video. I'm waiting to see what you do with the leftovers, i've still got around 250 rejects from all of my previous lots.

@78vinyl97 4 года назад

Something I've noticed about these companies that buy media they never seem to buy cd singles but when you visit their Ebay or Amazon shops they have lots for sale.they must be buying them from somewhere but no idea where.

@lyricaldetective4310 2 года назад

There is always an ORIGINAL source (The dealers, dealers, dealer)

@joshTEAM44 4 года назад

Someone should make you a simple little tool with an API to each media buyer (assuming they have a public API?) to which you scan once and select the best price... Effectively, your own scan it media buyer comparison site.

@Dizzy_Hites 4 года назад

This is exactly what I was going to post!! I'm sure you could post this on Fiverr. Spec:- Frontend scans barcode, records to spreadsheet, compares all sites defined in lookup (includes eBay, Amazon etc). and captures values, highest highlighted and checked. Nic reviews spreadsheets and confirms post to cart. Job Done 😃

@grantham-sut 4 года назад

Sadly none of them have an API (as it wouldn't benefit them to offer this service). Although I have seen a number of custom scripts that allow the processing of multi-lined files of barcodes. So you would scan them all in ONCE into a txt file, then run a script to process each line into the frontends of each website and save the output data. So in theory it would be possible, but not as clean as you would like. I had the exact same thought as I was watching, but don't do it enough to justify developing it

@jamowallace 4 года назад

@dannyw2313 3 года назад

You are behind the eight ball to start with when you add in your time and effort to sit on the computor and scan the item and then the time taken to box up and go to the post office or courier plus cost of vehicle. Then you have to consider the time taken to decide what to do with the bulk of the rest, so all in all there is no "real" profit to be made.
