Top reasons to sell your old DVDs

Looking to save money for a holiday? Boosting a travel saving fund to head to France, Spain or Germany on the European InterRail experience?

Luckily, Music Magpie can help. Music Magpie is an innovative service that allows you to sell DVDs and CDs in return for cash. Originally, Music Magpie launched as an easy way for people to turn their old music and films into cash, before the full move to the digitalalisation of media sources. Since then, the service has expanded to include games and other media formats.

The system is simple and there are no auctions, simply a sale. All you have to do is type the DVD barcode into the website, before an instantly quotation telling you how much they are worth. Not only will you make a little money, you’ll also get rid of all that irritating clutter in your home!

The service is totally free and even offers a freepost service. It’s also free from hassle. When you’ve completed your order online, you download and print off the freepost labels, or you can ask Music Magpie to send them to you. Just attach these to your box of DVDs and take them to the post office for posting – it’s that easy.

Because a lot of customers sell around fifty DVDs or more at a time, Music Magpie also offers a fully insured and free courier service, again costing nothing to send large volumes of DVDs. Simply select the most convenient date to you for collection and the courier will come to you. (You can still use the freepost labels and postal service if you prefer though.)

Selling your DVDs through Musicmagpie can also help you make a difference, as you have the option of donating the value of your DVDs directly to charity. We’ve chosen a carefully selected number of charities which we our proud to support.

Smartphone customers can also now use the free Music Magpie app to scan items and complete your order online. You can also use it to track your order status.

If you’re wondering what we do with your old DVDs, the answer is, we recycle them. The majority of DVDs and CDs are almost entirely recyclable and we’ve created one million car headlamps from recycled discs in the last year alone! It helps the environment and last year, we recycled enough discs to stretch from London to Nigeria.
