I can't comment for Hoya, but I've sold 7 on amazon in the last two weeks, and cleared about $15-$20. You're definitely not going to get rich.

Agreed…but it's almost always more money than eBay.

Hey Hoya,

How did this work out for you? I'm thinking of doing the same thing. I have way too many CDs that are just sitting in boxes taking up space.

i've sold 36 CDs on amazon so far for $240 (that's after amazon fees/commission but not including postage) and another ~15 CDs to people from the board for a similar ratio ($5-7 per CD) … there's still a lot left to go, but they're selling at a pretty regular clip

it took a weekend afternoon to put it all up on amazon, so i guess you have to decide whether that's worth it for you

maybe a 9:30 Forum swap meet is in order… I've got a bunch of left over Tower stuff that I'd might want to recover some money on…

Yes, I'm sure people will be dying to buy some of that. ;)

Seeing as I only bought extras of stuff I already owned and knew was top notch…. Not much point in buying crap

Then I reckon your Tower leftover selection to be better than mine. At this point, my Tower leftover selection consists of maybe a dozen cd's that:

a. I didn't like
b. no cd stores have been willing to buy
c. my brother didn't want for free
d. no Amazon customers have been willing to buy OR are selling for so cheap on amazon they're not worth posting…

More people should post the CDs they want to get rid of. I'm a sucker for CD sales and will usually buy a handful I'll listen to once.
