Have a collection that I wish to sell from 1988 - 1998 with only two issues missing.

All are in good condition, so what should I realisticly charge for them?

Thanks.

A donation to charity when someone will come pick them up from you seems to the going rate. Sorry to say but nobody really buys old car magazines, most are given away to people who would appreciate reading them, rather than re-cycling them. I do realise that this magazine isn't in print anymore, so maybe someone will offer some cash, but I wouldn't hold out for any big money offers.

Thats deeply SAD! I mean if you REALLY wanted an article from tht issue. Then surely they'll be a copy of the page on the Net somewhere.

Pay £13

I DONT THINK SO!

For a few quid (either £2.50 or £4 or something) you can get reprints of particular articles - although I've tried it with a couple of mag's before and been rather disappointed with the time it took to get the copy and the quality - rather poor b&w photocopies. Dunno about "Peformance Car". Could have done the same thing for about 20p if I knew someone with the issue.

rr-ww I am not asking you to buy any!

The collectors of these magazines are not looking for particular 'articles' but seeking to capture the whole feeling surrounding the time of publication.

They are extremely informative and entertaining and I will be sorry to see my collection go.

What I feel is sad, is your negative response to something that doesn't concern you at all.
