    I did that about a year ago and then sold them all at a local used CD, books, DVD shop. I'm sure I got less for them than if I'd sold them elsewhere, or one by one, but at least I was done with them all at once.

    This is the correct answer. Even if you get $2 per CD, that's still nearly $250, and you don't have to deal with shipping 100-120 CDs at the P.O. individually. Blech, that would be a mess.

    Seems you've got all the makings of a skeet shoot for the members of the FBC polling board. I'm sure the neighbors won't mind a bit.

    Will take some to a CD store (there has to be a better one than going to Jasper) and am selling some on Half because of imperfections in the bar code.

    Precisely.

    Do you not get top dollar? Usually not.
    Do you get it done with once and for all? Yes.
    Is it someone else's problem now? Yes.
    Did you get some money back and clear out some clutter? Oh yeah ...

    CD store took 29 of 62. Some I couldn't take because they were comps with the bar code out; others had slight imprfections in the surface. The manager at FYE was a stone cold bitch. I felt sorry for the clerk helping on me...

    Slappy, I sold most of my CD collection on eBay a year or so ago.

    Sell them seperately for 99 cents. Charge $3.50 for shipping.

    If you ship them First Class (it's actually cheaper than Media Mail and gets there quicker), it should cost less than $2 so right there you're making $1.50 on the shipping plus the 99 cents (at least) you're making from one bid.
