It’s going to get more and more difficult to sell back issues because publishers are now offering their complete archives on DVDs—usually for under $100. -- http://www.ezwoodshop.com

I wouldn’t spend the money on magazines even if I had it. There’s way to many things I need for my shop and don’t have much to spend anyways. If I was you I’d sell them on Ebay for the going rate one at a time. That’d be a lot of money you could put into your shop. Good luck. helluvawreck aka Charles http://woodworkingexpo.wordpress.com -- helluvawreck aka Charles, http://woodworkingexpo.wordpress.com

Before they started publishing CD/DVD archives of articles values for back issues were pretty strong but after the archives came out demand plummeted.
