I've decided to sell my beloved Amiga Power Magazines (15 issues) their are in uber mint condition, their are like when i first pick them up from the store! with all the coupons and flyers.
Now the real question is how does this particulary collectible item worth nowadays (inclunding the state they are in)?

No one? :-?

Like every thing else realy it will be worth nothing to one person and worth a lot to another.
Its all only worth as much as a person will be willing to pay for it.

Of course we are talking about someone (potencial buyers) who collects stuff to do with computers mainly Amiga's in this case :-D
-
Having the original cover disks/CDs would make a difference, too - in the case of CDs most people would find them more valuable than the magazines ...
With a CD I'd say a fair price would be £3 - £4 each (listing what the CDs contained), with a disk I'd say £2 - £3 ea, on their own £1 - £2.
Of course more if someone had a particular stiffy for those particular mags, but there's plenty of people out there who have piles of mags they'll never read again, so they don't accrue value for ALOT of years (I just chucked out about 100 car related ones that nobody round here wanted).

It's not all that difficult to get the cd's from various magazines, but to get the magazine as well is rare. To a collector, that would be worth more. But how many people collect all things Amiga these days? Hope at least you try to find them a good home before you trash them, if it comes to that.

I'm planning to sell only the mags since the coverdisks were all ruined with humidity... :-( but i find the coverdisks ' dispensable ' since one can find those easily on the internet. I find the mags more valious.
