Laser Discs and CEDs (1 Viewer)

[Tina Wright]

I have around 100 laser discs and CEDs. Does anyone know where I can sell these?

Good luck. CEDs are extremely heavy and shipping for just one would be costly, even using media mail. Both CEDs and laser discs are pretty passe now unless you own some truly rare ones -- such as Criterion titles that contain commentaries not carried over to DVD (the original releases of DR. NO, FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE and GOLDFINGER, for example). Some lasers contain superior soundtracks. Go to eBay and Amazon and check on any titles you think might have some value and you'll get an idea how to price yours. Probably best selling them by the lot through a local outlet or on Craig's list with the the stipulation that the buyer will agree to pay exact shipping costs or drive out and pick them up from you.

Maybe you can sell them on the LaserDisc Database, both the LDs and CEDs.

Wow, thank you very much for your response. I will check on the titles I have. Some are still in plastic wrap, never opened. What about laser discs? I have some unopened in plastic wrap too.

Thank you. I registered with that website but it sure is complicated. I don't see where I can sell my items. Do you know anything about it?

Well, I never used this as the marketplace as it is.
I used it only as a database.
There is a Help section, maybe that is of help (sic!) for you. Otherwise the admin will help you better than I can.

Qapla'.

Tina, head back to the LaserDisc Database, click on "Forums," then to the "LaserDisc" section, then look for a big gold dollar sign, which when clicked brings you to a selling and trading sub-forum. I'd forgotten I used to browse this site all the time when I was still collecting those things, and it was fun to re-register and revisit it. As for your CED's, scroll down one more box and you will see the official 'CED" logo. Click there and you'll find all kinds of threads about those as well, including ideas for selling yours off.

Hope that helps.

You can also sell them on eBay - this link shows what people have paid for specific titles recently.

How can you tell how much they paid?

Thank you! I will check that out.

They sure want a lot of personal information that's none of their business in order to register for the forum. No thanks.
