Where can you go to sell your dvds?

Answer 1

There are many great sites that buy your dvds or will help you sell your

dvds. But there is no definitive best place to sell. Many serve a different

purpose depending upon the level of service you desire and your value on

time spent selling. I will highlight the pros and cons of selling to the big

guys and some surprise alternatives you may have never heard of.

EBay - is a well known auction site. Just about everybody knows you can sell your stuff and make money online

at eBay. But it's not the only gig in town. There are other great places to sell your products online and make a

few dollars. You can sell on consignment, auction, or list your items for sale outright on other sites that do not

require a fee.

Google Base - You don't need a website to sell at Google Base. You can upload your entire store inventory and

sell items through the most popular search engine on the Internet. Categories of products and services you can

sell through Google Base include events and activities, products, recipes, vehicles, list jobs, reviews, services,

and vacation rentals. And what's the best part about Google Base? It's free. The problem with Google Base?

Sales volume. Like any new site that tries to break into eBay's territory it's hard to get the engine rolling

because buyers want you go where the sellers are and he sellers want to go where the buyers are. And because

Google base is new there are not many of either right now. But making your service free is a step to getting

there.

Amazon.com - Amazon.com built a solid reputation for itself as an online bookseller. Amazon's "used" platform

was originally modeled after half.com where sellers can choose to sell their own products on consignment. But

in recent years the largest bookseller online has branched out to become the 800 guerrilla in media sales. Other

sites like overstock.com model Amazon. The problem with Amazon: The learning curve and time required to get

selling. Setting up and verifying your bank account and credit card. Creating a datafile to upload to their

website. Organizing your incoming orders and email. Constant attention needs to be given to pricing. Even if

you set your sell prices low, bigger professional sellers will swoop in with their computerized scripts and

undercut your price by a penny. Amazon has been known to freeze new accounts if sales volume is heavy

because red flags are triggered. There are understandably alarmed of having new fraudulent accounts opening

and selling product without shipping. On Amazon you definitely will get orders but with the time required to

overcome these barriers I recommend selling DVDs on Amazon for the very serious seller or the career seller.

Amazon now has there own trade-in program where they posts prices what they pay on each item. They only pay store credit and i find the prices to be quite low compared to other sites.

Mx123.com - or Media Exchange 123 is in the business of buying your used DVDs, CDs and Video Games in

bulk. Consider this the easiest and fastest option. They give you a price quote through their website for your

used DVDs and they will buy everything you have in one easy hassle free transaction. You get a free shipping

label that you print out and stick on your box. Expect a payment by PayPal or check in two weeks after shipping

to them.

I have been a long time satisfied seller of DVDs to secondspin.com but I came across mx123.com by their

funny Youtube videos. My informal price evaluation has led me to believe mx123 pays higher than

secondspin.com on most items. The problem with MX123.com: Like any middleman you are not getting top

dollar you would if you were selling your items directly on your own. And beware of other "buy back" cookie

cutter websites popping up in this market niche. A degree of trust is required before sending your items off

through the mail before receiving payment.

Craigslist - Craigslist is free to sell. No commissions, no fees, no hassle. Consider it a free internet classified

service. Craigslist will help you hook up with someone in your local area. You work the payment details and the

exchange with the buyer. You can list almost anything for sale or trade at Craigslist. Categories books,

business, computer, furniture, jewelry, tickets, tools, arts & crafts, cars, CDs and DVDs, clothes, collectibles,

farm and garden, toys, household goods, music instruments, videos. Some of the problems: I have found this

ends up with many strangers knocking on my door or telephones ringing. You may not be comfortable with that.

You have buyers showing up that want to cherry pick though the best items in your collection. Craigslist may

best be used for items with a higher dollar value than DVDs. Craigslist is an informal channel for selling DVDs.

Handle with care.

UBid.com - UBid helps companies sell excess inventory. If you are in the biz and looking for a new place to sell

through, uBid is available.

UniSquare.com - UniSquare is smaller but similar to eBay. There are no listing fees for unlimited items for an unlimited time. This means you could list as many used DVDs as you want, have them sit around for awhile and not pay any fees. They do charge a 2% commission fee only when items sell though, which is very affordable.

Bonavendi.com - Bonavendi.com looks for several websites where you can sell and buy used things (including DVDs) and looks for the best price. You have no fees to pay it is completely for free, depending on the website you actually do sell to after looking for the best offer some fees can occur though.
