We want to buy your music and movies!

Selling your CDs & DVDs:
We typically pay from $1.00 to $4.00 for most full length CDs & DVDs,
based on popularity of artist, title and condition. There are thousands
of CDs & DVDs that we are happy to pay $3.00 to $4.00 for, but we may offer
you less than $1.00 for some poor-sellers. We pay higher prices for many box sets.
To get top-dollar, the CDs & DVDs must be in excellent shape; no scratches
on the discs, cracks in the cases, or rips in the liner notes.
We buy Rock, Jazz, Classical, Alternative, Imports, Techno and just
about every other genre of music, as well as most types of movies.
