Selling via Music Magpie
Selling your unwanted DVDs, CDs, books, tech, or even clothes to Music Magpie is easy; you can do it on their website or mobile app. The app is definitely more convenient as it has a barcode scanner that streamlines the process. Either way, they will tell you what you will get for each item upfront; if you don’t get that, they will return it to you for free. You have to sell at least £5 worth of items to send your order to them, but Music Magpie will provide you with a label to ensure that it doesn’t cost you anything to send your items.
