It is a shame that CD's are no longer mainstream. A majority of the population only cares about music portability and lossy digital downloads. Me....I tried to sell some of my CD collection a few years ago. I refused to sell them for the prices I was offered. Glad I kept them because a couple years later, I decided to rip them all to FLAC (archive quality). All that lossless resolution CD music is now on a large external hard drive that I play through my Oppo BDP-105D. Loving it!! All my CD's now are boxed up in a bedroom closet (just in case) and I'll never sell them. Wish I were where you are and could take some off your hands for a fair price.
what to do with 1000+ CD's, many imports and live concerts
Sadly my cousin passed away recently. She was a huge Eric Clapton & Bob Dylan CD collector and other assorted Blues, Rock acts. I've ripped FLAC versions of the few CD's that were of interest to me but I now have a huge collection of what appear to be "Limited Edition", Japanese and European imports, Promo Copies, MFSL, etc piled high in my den.
Does anyone have any advice as to how best remove the collection from my house quickly? I also want to make sure I'm not selling a "rare gem" for a $1. I'm not in the CD selling business and have a day job so it's not feasible for me to list them one by one.
Are there any particular CD's that I should be looking for in the collection? Is Audiogon the place to sell a lot such as this or are there more appropriate marketplaces?
