Nobody in the US wants UK mags?
« on: August 01, 2004, 05:13:44 AM »
I listed some old UK magazines on eBay, thinking somebody win the US/Canada would want a chance to get some older UK magazine without the cost of overseas shipping.

Do the UK mags only apeal the guys in the UK?
UK Mags

No big deal if nobody buys 'em, but they give me a headache 'cause they don't fit in my magazine holders! :-)

I was suprised to find out this past friday that it isn't legal to send magazines via media mail. They don't qualify for that catagory. As if they don't make enough money already!

Good info. Thanks!

You do post to Melbourne don't ya?

Melbourne, California? Sure!

...just kidding.  I'd send them anywhere that's requested, but don't bid on them unless you have a good feel for how much shipping is.  I have little experience with shipping to/from Australia.

AmigaWorld - Premier Issue (mint condition)
AmigaWorld - Introducing The Amiga 2000 (mint condition)
AmigaWorld - Introducing The Amiga 500 (mint condition)
AmigaWorld - Introducing The Amiga 3000T (mint condition)
STart Magazine - Premier Issue
-------------------------------------------

I owned, but disposed of all of these mags long, long  ago.  No loss however, bacause none of my magazines are in true mint condition.  I always read through them too many times!

The mags I have that will stay in my Amiga collection for good are:

Creative Computing, Jan 85* (*I think - I'm not near it right now) - where they cover the Fall 1984 tradeshows, and talk about the nearly-complete "Lorraine" by joystick manufaturer Amiga, Inc.

Byte August 85 - Amiga introduction
Compute! Sept 85 - Amiga intro

I'm also hanging on to my C&VG magazine Atari ST & Amiga 16-page pullouts.  The ones that they had in the mag before Atari ST and Amiga got thier own dedicated magazines.  Those inserts were awesome!
