I'll take them. PM me with what you have.

Heh, I was so about to fry a copy of Night of the Living Dead 3D in the microwave and give it to my roommate back in college. I hated him.

You can mail your DVDs to GreenDisk, and they will recycle them for you.

Many independent and some big chain record stores will buy collections of CD's, DVD's and records. (I sold many an old DVD at Amoeba Music, for example.) Look for a local used record store in your area, or you could send them to an online used record store like secondspin.com.

That's what I do. I have made enough from my old DVD's to get a new Blu-Ray or two.

MovieStop (if you have one nearby) will trade for cash. Pawn shops usually will, too.

Well, I'm a pack-rat, so mine are sitting on the shelves where they'll stay for some time to come. We still use them in the car on trips and on comuters. If you really need to get rid of them, donate them to a library or Goodwill.

I usually trade mine on swaptree.com. Right now I am using my double dipped DVDs to beef up my CD collection.

Yup but anywhere you trade movies in you always get less with cash.
