Craft Magazines

Hi
I have a load of Craft magazines mainly Crafts Beautiful and Papercraft Essentials that I want to get rid of and was wondering what the best way of selling them (nominal price) or if there is even a market for them. I tried a few on ebay in a bundle but the postage works out so high because of the weight. If there is possibly a market for them I would list them individually but I was just wondering if there is actually anybody that would buy them :D
I have sold most of my papercrafting goodies (I just knit, sew and bead now) so now I am left with these mags I have no use for. It seems a shame just to recycle them.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I hAve seen lots of people taking magazines to carboots, might be an idea if you've other things to get rid of?
    Or what about gumtree or your local paper.
    Failing that free cycle or donating to some charities or organisations?

    thanks for the ideas ...nothing else for a carboot so it would be a pathetic stall:rotfl:

    Off to look at Gumtree.....

    If it isnt worth it I will find somewhere to benefit from them...I gave a load of yarn I wont be using to a group that do knitting tuition for kids so if I could find something similar in the area that could go there

    My local library takes old magazines for people to help themselves to. If not a charity shop will probably be happy to take them.
