Familiarity with the site rules is helpful because you want to deal with sellers who are good at following those rules. I look for 99.5% positive feedback or higher when their sales are in the hundreds, 99.O % or higher if their transactions are in the thousands. * a seller with 100% positive feedback who has only sold one record is not a safe bet because they lack a solid track record. Seller's profile contains info such as how many items they've sold, approval rating (I only buy from sellers that have a 99% approval rating or higher with high sales numbers. Well I don't typically sell, I'm a buyer.ĭiscogs has a rating system.

If anyone has success stories selling their CD's online and not taking too much of a loss, I'd love to hear about them. If you can get 20 cents on the dollar on average for your cd's, you're doing REALLY well. I would think Craig's List would be the best way to sell off a big batch and most profitable with no internet business or shipping fees but you'd better be prepared to give a lot of them away to get rid of them. A glance at discogs for any given cd will show lots of copies for sale of any given item, you have to undercut the lowest price or it'll be up for sale forever. Or else you have to severely undercut your asking price. IMO in order to sell cd's online you need to sell a bunch of them as a lot and include a hot collectable jewel along with the dogs that no one wants. Sad to say, almost no one wants them anymore unless you practically give them away and even then that may not work since most stores have too much CD stock as is that they can't move. Most record stores around my area won't buy CD's anymore unless they are top shelf highly desireables such as MFSL gold disks.
