A question of DVDs

When I was going through DVDs to show to my guests and then have a marathon on my own, I realized that I have an awful lot of them that are just *there* - I watch the movie maybe once every other year or so. And between the ability to rent on iTunes or Netflix, I'm wondering if it's worth having such a large collection of movies that are just taking up space.

If I keep them, then I'm not spending extra money if I ever bother to watch them again.

If I get rid of them, I have a couple of options. Donate them to Team Wench for the yard sale, for one, but they won't bring in a lot of money. Another is to donate to one of the charities around here that send DVDs to soldiers where they will presumably be more loved than they are gathering dust here.

And a third is... what, y'all?

Some DVDs can be traded in at Amazon, or resold there. I've made about $1,000 reselling on Amazon in the last six months.

Dang, really? That's some serious $$$.

A lot of it was on electronics picked up from yard sales, but it's good money. Let me know if you want a quick lesson via IM.

Let me get back to you. I want to, but right now I'm still in the "figure out what goes" stage.
