Selling second hand magazines

I noticed a copy of Doctor Who magazine from 2005 sold for over £70 last week...

I have said issue and have listed it, don't really want a gap in my collection but I can live with it for that money!

Only last month I sold a High street available magazine with a cover price of £4.99 for £9..an absolute fluke of course and I was kicking myself as I could easily have bought a whole lot more and turned over a fe wpounds. The hting was it was slightly out of date and I bought it from a market stall where you got three magazines for £2..so even better.

Where is this market incidentally? I know of one in Kent, but am looking to find one in the Midlands, or even better, distribute them myself.

You will excuse me for not sharing my source I'm sure. However, all my local outdoor markets have this type of stall, it is just hit and miss what they actually have for sale. I don't know where their wholesalers are, they obviously won't tell me!

I buy used old magazones all the time, i got about 70 wedding magazines in one job lot when i was planning my wedding, i them bought 200 Digital photography magazines in a job job, there are a few magazines missing so im always on the lookout.

Theres 1 magazine from this year that i missed but i refuse to pay £7 for a backdated magazine from the publisher when i can get 1 of ebay for half that price.

I say list them on ebay - if they sell they sell. Sometimes buying out of date job lots of magazines works out a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a couple of books and they have more info.

There are plenty of cheap couriers around - you can send 25kg for less than £10.
