Selling Game Informer Magazines

Link · **Posted:** Mon Nov 01, 2010 1:02 am

So, I haven't counted, but I think I have like 10 or more years worth of Game Informer magazines. Would anybody be interested in buying these, and/or able to suggest a good price that I could put them up for on eBay?

50 cents a issue minimum ... I wouldn't go above $2 an issue. so that's a range of $60-$240. $1 an issue would be $120.

But, you gotta keep in mind ... it's GameInformer, I don't know of many people who want their back issues.

'eh, I see some people selling 12 lots for like 24 or 30 dollars. So, I figure I have more room to make a bit of extra cash and clear out some extra space by selling a ridiculous amount of GameInformers in bulk, since I expect most people haven't hung onto theirs.

I wouldn't mind looking at their back issues

The problem: I'm broke

donate them to the library? I'm sure kids there would be happy to get their hands on anything video game related

unless someone is looking for a guide (not like they even do those much anymore), there is little reason to track down a back issue

Yes, and you can claim them on taxes, however, the government will be the ones to decide what they're worth. (And then only give you a percentage of that)

I have to go through all my stuff but I suspect I have them that low.

I'm currently in the process of trashing and/or burning every Gayme Informer rag I might have stuffed in boxes that deserve Playboy space.

I'm gonna try and just bulk sell them on eBay for some small amount of cash I think.

...? Ah, I was waiting for Mr. GameInformer to tell me what he needed.

It's been like forever since I've been here, but if you still have those gameinformers, this is what I'm looking for:

Feb 1995, Jan 1996, Jun 1996, 40-64, 71-83, 85-89, 94, 95, 101, 102, 103, 105, 173, 174

Thank you For your patience... :pirate:

I think I may have uncovered more. I'll go through my list and let you know what I have, and then also go through the sets I may have uncovered as well.

FYI, the stuff I uncovered is stuff I wanted to keep. I need to go through GameInformer and figure out which issues have the most original content, particularly Game Infarcers and what not.
