If you have that many and you imagine you might get a few quid each at best then yes.

Id probably be interested in a few providing you can give me a decent list and price?

Cant download movies anymore, going legal so would gladly take some off of your hands.

Aye, me too, always looking to pad out my collection. Its easy enough to pick up good DVDs for a £1 upwards, usually £2-£3 on amazon marketplace but obviously you usually have to pay shipping on each item as well so it ends up being rather expensive.

They copy protected? If not, rip em onto a cheap external HDD first, then flog em. Then you can burn copies for friends/relatives/profit
