Looking at selling my laserdisc collection. I have collected LD's since 1994 and have amassed a big collection over the years. I have spent 1000's on this collection but with the launch of dvd Laserdisc's started there demise, I had the collection, plus 3 pioneer player plus a Yamaha amp on Ebay a year or so back and it did not reach the reserve so I kept onto it. This is really a specialist format as discs retailed on average 30-50 pounds new but special editions and DTS could sell for 100+ new. Some discs in my collection can still go for 70-100 used!! Here is what I am selling.

 

Pioneer DVL 909 - Laserdisc/DVD combi player

 

Pioneer CLD D-515 Laserdisc player

 

Pioneer CLD 950 Laserdisc player

 

Yamaha RX- V396RDS Cinema DSP amp

 

200+ LD's all housed in 7 soft insided flight cases

 

Disc titles can be seen at the following link

This collection has took years to amass but I have not used/bought any for a few years. Many discs have only been watched once and some are still sealed!! If you have not seen Laserdisc before it is/was an awesome format especially the disc cover artwork. DTS discs still out do thier dvd brothers as DTS laserdiscs run at 1529kbps where as DVD runs about 756kbps.

 

This sale is on a Price on application basis as if you know about Laserdisc you will know what these players and discs used to cost. Im not looking for mega money but there is over 10k of gear here! thus its not going for peanuts. Ok here is a couple of pics. I will take more at the weekend

Crikey - it's going to be a pretty serious geek/collector who buys LD stuff these days, isn't it?

 

I still have my LD player in the loft as it happens, but I've moved to a diskless setup now, good luck with it :)

 

I have all my dvd's on my media server and the LD's just taking up space now. And as for the Geek comment? WTF I like movies and A/V gear and LD's up until 2000 was the best way for watching movies at home. Still a good second hand market for LD's so more for the collector... not the geek
