Got about 175 original DVD's, mostly quality movies, all the MOB (godfather etc) ones and british gangster flicks etc and rest a large mix all across the board...
Going to sell about 100 or so off this week...
best way to do it?
Sell as one big job lot, ie 100 dvds
Sell as smaller lots say 15 per lot..
Any opinions? best way to make the most cash...
Seen a few job lots on ebay going for good money, thats where they will be going..
Or if anybody interested I will put up a list in classifieds this week..just really looking for opinions just now though...

You've got a problem whichever way you do it really.
If you sell them as batches, people might be put of when they get 'Junior' thrown in with 'Goodfellas' etc 
Then if you sell them all, you're going to get less money and more hassle because you can't send them.

Are you in a rush to sell?
I'd sell them individually, or as bundles if you've got 3 by Tarrantino, or a trilogy of the same films.
That way, you'll get the most money for them, and the most feedback, but it might take you a few weeks to shift them, which is a pain

Why don't you start putting up a list of say 25 on here - £3 each and see what happens. If you get offers, great, if not sell them as a job lot.
Only problem is you get left with all the tat no one wants

You'll get more money individually. You're dreamin with the £2-3 for most. I've just sold 30 DVD's on there, and you're lucky to get £1.50, unless it's a really recent/rare one.
It's a right ball ache posting them all individually tho

id sell as a lot on ebay, wouldnt sell individually not worth the effort.
plus a lot of shops or car boot people buy lots off ebay to resell.
or better yet go to a car boot like some one said, so much easier.
