I' giving serious thought to selling stuff, DVDs, CDs, Consoles, Games etc. in order to buy decks, but I know I will regret it in 2/3 years time and I have the monet but will have to pay loads to rebuild my collection. What should I do, sell or save?

Fight for cash or sell your ass.
Think hard before you sell anything. I gave my RATM discography away and didnt mind but other things I wish I had kept. I give things away loads of late because I horde too much for too long. I have all kinds of junk.

night job?
hehe
well, you just have to weigh your priorities...
but one thing to keep in mind...
vinyl is also expensive... and you need vinyl to play on the decks... so.........
more $$$
just some food for thought

I always feel good when I get rid of "junk" but nearly always, months later, something arises and I think, if only I'd kept that: lead/hi-fi/console/toy
I could use it for X...
I have considered prize fighting before, but despite my size I'm too young. You're generally in your fighting peak during your 30s...

I know vinyls expensive. I have about 50 records just waiting for decks. I've made a pact with myself not to buy any more vinyl aside from twoism & hi-scores till I get decks.
Again, could do a night job, but my contract prevents it. Maybe do some freelance cash in hand work at weekends/the odd evening...

A got of games don't have much replay value so you can dump those. I'd hold onto your music.

I dunno, thing is I'd only get about 50p-£1 for most snes/megadrive games and I value them a lot more than that. I suppose I could sell my PSX multitap & a pad, but agian, I'd probably only get £10 = 1% of way to decks ;(
Thing is, I mainly only listen to MP3s & vinyl, so my CDs are just sitting there. And they are probably the thing in best condition and with the highest re-sale value.
If I did sell anything it'd be to private buyers, sod selling 200+ Cds to a 2nd hand shop for £300...

thats true. 13 is nice, maybe a bit too 'arty' but modern life is rubbish is definitely their best. i wonder if it is available in vinyl.. i saw the cd in a 2nd hand record shop in stockholm but decided to take björks telegram since it was vinyl.
