Sell Your Used CDS to Second Spin For Extra Money
This is the next step in my continued quest for less stuff and more money.
I’m getting rid of my old cds. Yay!
Yes, I have an mp3 player, but like many of you, I’ve kept my old cds—just in case.
Over the years, I’ve never had to reload my computer or my player (knock on wood). These days, back-up drives are so cheap and large, I have no trouble keeping other sets of my music files.
So finally, the cds are going out the door. Right now, I’m using two sources for buy back.
Second Spin works in much the same way as the online book buyers do. Enter the CD info into their system. They’ll tell you how much they’ll pay you for it. If you agree, package everything up and ship your collection to them. They will check everything in and send you a check or a PayPal payment. Easy.
I usually check the same cd on Amazon
This system has been working for me because Second Spin will often pay higher for the more popular titles while the more collectible and rare titles go for higher on Amazon. Of course, Second Spin is the immediate sale while you’ll have to wait for a buyer on Amazon.
If anyone out there has a reliable source to recommend to me, I would sure appreciate it. I still have half my collection to go.

Wow… you do realize that unless you’re removing the music from your player and computer, this is totally illegal as well as unethical, right? You can sell the CD, but you’re selling ALL your rights to it.
Purging unused items is a great idea, especially if you can make some money while doing it, but publically promoting music copyright fraud is something you might want to think twice about.
frugal, I didn’t realize this. Thanks for bring it to my attention.
I would guess that this means if someone buys a used CD, the artists and the companies do not get more money. That seems like a hole in the system. Why would used CDs be allowed then?
