I tried selling off some old magazines before. A box of 100 didn't even get the minimum $5 bid


Trouble with that many is the cost of postage i have an amiga format here that has 343 pages or it might be more. :-)
I once had an amigaone xe but sold it .

CU was my favourite, for sure. Quite a blow when it all ended. They
stopped far too soon in my opinion. I have the final issue, but like
it's been said, it's worth far more to me than to anyone else.

Cu Amiga was the best - due mainly to the balance of hardware reviews, tutorials, games  reviews, software reviews it had - compared to most of the others that were little boys magazines with nothng but games (and as I was a little boy, I couldn't afford any of the games!) (well Amiga Computing was also one on of the 'serious' mags...)
I like Amigas

I also remember subscribing to "Amazing Computing/Amiga" here in the U.S. I was happy with it and got five issues -- the last five.

The last  one talked of how 'Amiga suddenly went dark' and there was a big question mark on the cover. A major turnaround from the previous, positive issue. And I cannot find out why the magazine didn't continue (or how I could have tried to get some of my subscription money back).

Anyone know more?

I was going through a pile of old(`93-`94 vintage) AFs and CU Amigas a while back. Ah, the good old days..
Couldn`t believe the prices back then either, there must be some amiga users walking about with only one kidney !

 Best of all, were the readers questions. Almost every issue I picked up had " Where can I buy the AGA chipset to upgrade my A500" :-o

And the fun of playing about with the new demos on the coverdisks, dunno why but "Waynes World Pong" springs to mind!
I know, it doesn`t take much to amuse me....
Party on ...

Hmm, just had a thought.. I wonder if Amiga.org will ever get renamed Waynes World ?? :-P
