I highly recommend Half.com for anyone interested in selling OR buying used CD's, books, videos or video games. When I first dicovered the site, I went through my house and gathered up all the CD's that we never listen to, videos we're tired of and books I was tired of looking at sitting on my shelf. I registered with Half.com and listed all my "goodies" for sale. In 4 months, I have sold about $150 worth of the "junk" laying around my house.

When garage sale season starts back up, I plan on picking up CD's that I think I can re-sale on the site. I've only done this once so far, but I sold one I got for 50 cents for $7!!! Not a bad return on my investment!

I also love buying items at this site! I have gotten Disney movies for my 4 year old that would have cost me 4 times more at retail! I bought several books for Christmas presents. The items are listed as "like new", "very good", "good" and "acceptable" so it is easy to choose one suitable for a gift or to pay a little less for one in not so great shape for personal use.

I can attest that their guarantee and return policy really works. I ordered a certain Barbie book for my neice for Christmas. What I was shipped was NOT the book I ordered. I reported a problem and was instructed to ship the book back to Half.com and I was reimbursed my purchace price plus enough to cover the return shipping.

If no one has listed an item you want, you can add it to your "wish list" and in the future, if someone does list it, you will be notified by email that it is available. You can even "pre-buy" items, but I have not done this yet, so I can't really comment on it.

I constantly recommend Half.com to my friends and family. It has been so great being able to afford to buy music and movies that I've always been interested in but not willing to shell out all the money to own. Plus, when I get tired of some of my own, I can help someone else to be able to afford something they have alway wanted!
