[#3094445]

Doing a bit of a clear out and wondering if old mags have any value. I have some STW mags, some cycle mags, a year 2000 pinarello catalogue. I have some 90's bontrager catalogues but i am keeping them.

not really, I had 100s of mags from the early 90s and scanned the covers and stuck them on retrobike, have been selling them on and off over a 4 year period for a bit of pocket money,

most of the 90's stuff went in a clear out a few years back, Bike, mbuk, mbi, i still have a full set of mtbpro kicking around i think?

This is mostly 2000+

but it has been sorted a bit already so some has been binned already.

Not sure about value but I cut the route guides out of old bike mags before recycling them.
Building me a library...

Stick them on Ebay, if they're cheap enough they'll sell ,and they fit easily into an A4 envelope so theres no pissing about with packaging and post office queues. Even if you only make £30 or £40 it'll buy you some new tyres when the need arises. 😀

Took a pile to the recycling yesterday. Unless someone comes and gives you something for them and takes away the lot, its more faff than its worth.
