Many of us have old DVDs gathering dust in the attic or hidden away in cabinets.
And while clearing them out might seem a gargantuan task, it could land you with a tidy profit.
Experts have revealed the top 15 DVDs that could make you the most money.
Topping the list is the complete DVD box set of the Carry On collection, containing all 31 films that were made over their 34-year span – which could sell for £350.
Meanwhile if you have the limited edition castle box set of Monty Python And The Holy Grail, you could be in line for a £300 payout.
The Blade Runner Ultimate Collector’s Edition Briefcase could also fetch you £300, as well as a limited edition box set of The Godfather.
Collectables expert Tracy Martin, enlisted by online gambling site Bally Casino, shared her expertise.
She said: ‘Collectable value can be due to rarity, different variants to the norm, oddities – misspelling on DVD cases or books – nostalgia – people buying back their memories, limited edition and basic supply and demand.

‘There are so many reasons things are collectable.
‘People don’t always recognise they have things of value which is why they turn to valuers like me or do their own research online.
‘Always research to ensure you get the best price achievable for your collectable by looking to see what similar items have sold for in the past.’
Next on the list is The Avengers ’62-64 Emma Peel Mega Set, which is worth about £275, while the wooden box limited edition of 1973’s The Wicker Man could fetch £225.
Others that make the top 15 include the ultimate restored blu-ray edition of The World At War, The Beatles Anthology DVD box set and the ‘Just The Shows’ DVD box set of Red Dwarf.
For those who do have any of the DVDs mentioned, Ms Martin provided advice on the best way to get the best price.
‘Find the perfect selling platform, that could be an auction selling site or a retail site,’ she said.
‘I prefer an auction with collectables as there is the option for worldwide visibility and also is more likely to encourage people to bid before the item expires, people love a deadline.
