    I would try to sell the lot on Craigslist. Try to find someone local who is willing to pay a little more for the lot.

      another update on postage. I have been selling more frequently on half.com they are reimbursing postage for one video or game $3.00. It is costing me $2.76 - $2.96 to ship these items. This is actual cost, no extra for packaging or gas to take them there. All costs associated with shipping in any business. so the days of a buck for shipping are long gone. Remember, folks, postage has increased. If you are just shipping one here and there you will not notice the need to pay for supplies, but when you are shipping several a week or more you will notice it! I did discover one find tho. I picked up a box of folders at a yard sale really cheap and these provide very nice packaging. a little tougher to withstand mail but not so heavy as to shove it into the next weight level. As said before it is much cheaper to ship more than one than just one. It actually costs approx the same to ship two as one.

        I used a site called secondspin

        It was really simple to use. Type in the UPC and off you go. I got over $50 for all my DVD's.

        They sent payment to my paypal account.

          For me personally, yes, I woud group them into lots. One could even group them in a lot of the same actor...Tom Hanks, as an example. Genre, is another way to do it as well.

                    We take our old dvd's and cd's that we don't use anymore to hastings, you can either get cash or store credit (you get more if you take store credit). they will also take books.

                      I don't think their ripping people off. There is time involved and people should be compensated for it.

                          I think a lot depends on what your goal is. If your goal is to get the most for each of these, selling them individually over Craigslist or the like is best, but the downside is it takes a lot of time (and time is money). If you want to get rid of them fast, you can sell at a garage sale, but them you will not get very much for them (but you'll save a lot of time). So it depends what you consider more valuable -- your time or the actual cash.

                            Comparison website

                            Hi! I usually check Bonavendi out. It's a free price comparison engine, works nation-wide and it comes handy to find out who would give you top dollar. Take a look and good luck!
