I wanted to try this for a few boxes of old CD's I have. Might not bother in fairness.

They advertise it as cash for dvds and games, skyrim probably worth £20 elsewhere. They sell these on to second hand shops and places like that.

It's not worth the time sitting scanning all your shit or manually entering the barcodes, could earn more per hour cleaning bogs.

I put on a bunch of CDs and they offered my 30p a pop

I know it's a joke mate. I downloaded the app for my phone and scanned a few barcodes. Think it was literally a couple of pence for an album on cd. I scanned a 3D bluray and it was less than a quid. Can't believe anyone would be that desperate to send them anything.

I cleared out my CD's and got just under £100. There was quite a lot but I have not bothered with CD's for years so for me it was a cupboard full of shit or £100. I used a discount code and got 25% more as well.

I used it a few months ago, got £50 from them for some old DVDs and also got 24 for skyrim. Don't know why they only offered you that money came after a few days, would probably use them again when I've got old stuff lying around.

I sent 42 CD's to them a couple of months back for the grand old sum of £16.32

Better than nothing though I guess - I couldn't be bothered with the hassle of eBaying them so was pretty much set on handing them in to a charity shop tbh!
