I seriously love this type of shit. Any time I'm at someone's place and see they have a physical collection of music, I just have to inspect.

The burned Philips cd-r is messing with my OCD.
Also I spent way too long trying to figure out what the sort order was. |

I took two boxes of CDs that had been sitting in my closet since I moved to the record store to trade in yesterday. Got nearly $300 in store credit.
Who knew buying all of those nu-metal CDs 15+ years ago would prove to be such a worthy investment? I still have four boxes in the closet, plus about 800 on display. Eventually I would like to just have the stuff on display and ditch the boxed stuff, but some of it is in such rough condition that I doubt I'd get anything for it. |

Because really, it's not a great deal. But if you have a lot of crap and want some spare change, it's worth it. The store credit is ideal because they give you less if you take cash. And now I can buy more crap to sell back in 15 years. |

I just looked at it very plainly as "I moved into this apartment two years ago and haven't unboxed this stuff, nor do I think I will ever want to hear any of it again" and it was simple.

I'm also kind of a "getting rid of stuff" junkie as of late.

I might take the other four boxes someday even knowing that some of the scuffed stuff will be worth pennies at best.

even when i'm full "lets get rid of stuff" i never get rid of my cd's, man
if you sell it you'll get paid jack shit, and if you keep it it's just keeping a musical trail of where you used to be, and that's totally cool in my book. |

I mean, we're talking thousands of CDs. That's a lot of clunky plastic. The things you own end up owning you and such. |

I have a bookcase that reaches the ceiling full of music that I don't plan on parting with. I love looking and touching and just having a physical collection in general. The stuff in the closet was stuff I grew out of or just never clicked with. I used to spend a lot of my income just buying CDs back in the '90s/early '00s.

Also, so much trash from my high school years was in those boxes. So much nu-metal, you don't even know.

i definitely hear that.
i have a pretty pathetic collection, around 100 cd's and a bunch of vinyls, so it never really bothered me to keep moving it around. i'd imagine when it really becomes too much it just becomes an annoyance |

But yeah. I had accumulated so much stuff it was ridiculous. My closet looks better already even with just two boxes gone. |

it's mostly old stuff, and then a bunch that i really actually bought and still care deeply about. as much as it's kinda shitty and shameful to admit i haven't really bought music since early 2000's |
