What to do with a large collection

I have thousands of CDs and records and am looking to get rid of most of them. i can’t possibly listen to them in my remaining years and my wife doesn’t need them. CDs, it turns out, are not very viable these days, and if you want to sell them to a dealer you can only get store credit!! And, if as in my case, the collection is 90% classical, it seems they will be impossible to unload. Since CDs are antiques these days, I can’t imagine ANYONE who would want them. The only alternative I can see is the garbage. When you consider just how much of an investment they were it’s indeed a sobering realization.
Records are indeed “in,” but how desirable are classical LP’s?

Any suggestions?

Hi. Would definitely be interested in purchasing your collection. If you don’t mind, where are you located?

I've purchased collection of North of 100K records at least twice. I don't think I've paid more than dime pre piece doin' that...

So how large is yours?

After 2 years selling on ebay time to liquidate CD’s.  Just scanned in the remainder of my CD collection using Decluttr.   Have about 240 CD’s of which they accepted 60 for $7.00 and they provided a free shipping label to GA.  Went fast with their AP with a bar code scanner.  They do not take duplicates or BMG club CD’s or CD’s without bar codes.  Many of mine were BMG club CD’s.  Remainder of mine are headed to our local thrift store.
