Technology, seems these days we can’t live without it, and frankly, it takes up a lot of space. Much as we love our CDs, DVDs, cameras, laptops and all that goes along with ‘em, if we don’t off-load some of the stuff soon, our living room floor may cave in.Yup, it’s time to thin the herd and find a loving home for our old stuff. Where to start? Well, we could organize a garage sale, but who wants to give up a Saturday to do that? Instead, we plan to park ourselves at the computer and troll through a few of the new sites that exchange old technology for good old greenbacks.
On our list to check out: CDs, DVDs: BuyBackMedia.com, CashforCDs.com, SecondSpin.com pay cash (via check or PayPal), while other sites like Amazon.com and Blockbuster.com run trade-in programs in exchange for store credits or gift cards. Electronic Gadgets: Gazelle.com buys all sorts of technology items if they still work – or will recycle items responsibly if they no longer have market value.
Among the items they will buy: cell phones, laptops, desktops video games, satellite radios, external drives, monitors, camera parts, home audio equipment and more. Video Games: Depending on how hot your games are, you may get more money by selling video games on eBay, so do some research to find out the current market value of the games you want to divest yourself of – otherwise, you can always go the classic Craigslist.com, Amazon.com or GameStop.com route.
