Would like to trade old video game magazines (also sell) look inside
What I'd really like to do, is trade a bunch of my magazines pictured below, for other magazines that I'm looking for. I put a list of magazines that I'm looking for at the very bottom of this post. Unfortunately, I know that many people might not have the issues that I'm actually looking to trade for, but they still would like to get some of these issues. Because of this, I put prices on all the magazines, still, I'd much rather trade issues.
The prices are based on many factors. Scarcity is a huge component. Magazines that generally don't show their face very often, are obviously worth more than those that do. Sometimes an issue is worth more because it's a November or December issue, and it's absolutely huge. There are many different factors. I have a ton of magazines that I'm selling that are only 50 cents, or 75 cents each. Those are magazines that are more recent. Magazines from the early 90's just have more value than recent magazines. Hard to find magazines from 1989, 1990, 1991 and 1992 can be extremely expensive. Mags from 1993 thru 1997 can also be quite expensive. When you get to 1998 , the prices tend to drop a bit, and then post 2000, the prices drop quite a bit. Most of it is just scarcity. Anyways, some of my prices might seem crazy high, but that's more an indication of me really wanting to "trade" an issue, rather than sell it. Sure, I'll put a price on just about anything, but sometimes I'll price something higher than you might expect, because I'd rather save it for a good trade...
Shipping is not included in the prices, but I only charge the actual exact shipping cost. I don't charge any extras for handling or materials or anything like that. Just whatever I have to pay the post man. Normally, Media Mail is the cheapest way to go, but if you're buying a large number of mags, sometimes the Priority Box is the best way to go. Please include your zip code in your PM's. Thanks.
1. Game Informer - Jan./Feb. 1992 - Lemmings - Front cover and back cover in excellent condition. There is an address label on the back cover towards the bottom. Interior pages are in excellent condition. I would say that this issue is in "near-mint" cond. The only thing keeping it from being mint is the address label on the back. ------------- $4.50
2. Next Generation - July 1997 - Blasto - Front cover is in good cond. , there is some residue from an address label. Back cover has some minor bends / scuffs, but nothing major, it's in pretty good cond. The last 6 or so pages in the magazine have a tiny rip at the top of the page near the corner. It's a very small rip, but it's there. Otherwise, all the pages are in very good cond. ------------- $5.50
3. Super Gaming - Winter 1991 - Mega Man - Front cover is in good condition. There is a slight bend that runs the length of the spine on the cover, but I think it's normal for this type of binding. Back cover in good cond. The interior pages are in good condition, although page 17/18 has a small section cut out of it. This is the Super Tricks section of the magazine, and somebody must have cut out a level select code for a game or something. All other pages appear to be in great shape. Last 3 or 4 pages of the magazine have a bent corner at the very tip top of the corner. It's extremely minor, but just wanted to mention it. --------------- $7.50
4. Mega Play - March/April 1992 - The Terminator - The cover of this issue was starting to fall apart along the spine, somebody put tape all along the spine to prevent it from falling apart. The cover does have some small bends at the two corners. The bend in the bottom right corner goes through the first 7 or 8 pages of the magazine. Back cover has a small bend at the top corner. Other minor scuffs and wear and tear on the back cover. A bunch of the pages in the middle are starting to come a bit loose. Might need to take out the staples, and try to re-staple them all together. Or just leave the pages kinda loose in the middle. Page 49/50 is halfway coming loose. Pages are in good shape otherwise. Pages have the tiniest curl at the very edge of some of them. Very, very minor. ------------------- $5
1. Next-Generation - #32 - August 1997 - Lost World (Sega) - Front cover is in very good condition. Back cover in very good condition. There is a faint fold or impression in the middle of the back cover. Interior pages are in very good condition. There is a very tiny amount of "curl" on some of the very tip top corners of the pages.

2. Next Generation - #33 - September 1997 - Messiah - Front cover has a fold in the bottom right corner. There are some extremely minor scuffs along the right edge of the front cover. There is a bend or impression along the spine that runs from top to bottom, but this might just be a normal thing for how the mag is binded. Either way, it's quite minor. The back cover has a bit of a crease or fold in the middle, running the length of the back cover. It's kinda like an indentation or something. It's not really a big deal. Front and back cover are in good cond. all things considered. Just pointing out anything I notice. The fold on the front cover (bottom right corner), has left an impression on the first 20 pages or so. It's a relatively faint impression that starts off more noticeable and then fades away after about 20 pages. The back 20 pages of the magazine has a bit of an impression from the crease on the back cover. It's mostly only noticeable on very dark pages. It's more noticeable on the very back pages, and then becomes less pronounced. Besides these issues, the interior pages are in outstanding condition. There isn't any curl to the corners, or anything like that. ------------------------ $5.50

2. Video Games & Computer Entertainment ( VG&CE ) - #26 - March 1991 - Military Madness - The biggest blemish of this issue is some water damage on the front cover. There is a bit of rippling on the front cover due to water damage. It's not as bad as you might think, and the rippling only affects the cover. The back cover has a very tiny bit of rippling along the spine, but other than that, the back cover is in good cond. The first 7 or 8 pages, where the water damage was has some slight discoloring at the edges of the pages. The pages don't have the rippling that you normally get with water damage, but a bit of a discoloring to their edges. Not that big of a deal, but I like to point out everything.

Five pages are missing between pages 55 and 68. Page 79/80 has a section cut out of it.
So, obviously, it seems like this magazine was own by somebody that couldn't control their sissors for some weird reason. Still, what is here, is in good condition, and there are still a lot of interesting pages that remain. This magazine has a grand total of 82 potential pages, of which, 27 pages are either missing or damaged. It's a ton of pages, but almost 70 percent of the magazine is intact.

1. Super NES Buyer's Guide - Volume 3 - Issue 6 - November 1993 - Street Fighter 2 Turbo - The picture above that shows Street Fighter 2 Turbo is just a reference for the issue it is. The one I have, is the one above that, It's missing the front cover and pages 3/4 and 5/6. It's missing the back cover and pages 63/64 and 65/66.

3. Diehard GameFan - Volume 2 - Issue 12 - December 1994 - Doom 32X - This is probably one of the greatest issues of GameFan in existence.

The interior pages are in very good condition, but the very top of them there is a small rippling effect, like there was some water damage at the very top along the edges. It's more towards the top corner of the pages. The rippling is there, but it's only at the very, very top of the page. Some of the extreme bottom of the pages also has this rippling, which makes me think that maybe this is just something that happens to this type of paper over time. It's hard for me to believe that it would have water damage at the very, very top of the pages, and the very, very bottom of the pages, but nowhere in the middle. Anyways, the pages are in great shape other than the rippling, which is only at the very extremes of the pages, and only if you're actually looking for it. I like to point out any and every blemish that I see, because I know some stuff bothers some people, and doesn't bother other people. It just depends, but I just try to disclose everything. ------------------------ $8

I had to tape this area up, or it would cause other parts of the cover to rip. There is also a small rip just below the middle right edge of the cover that was taped. Even with both of those problems, the front cover is in pretty decent condition. Back cover is in very good condition, but there are some very minor scuff marks along the bottom. The extreme edge of the corners are slightly bent. I'm talking the very, very tip of the corners. Interior pages are in very good condition. There is a tiny bit of curling to the extreme corners, more so towards the back of the magazine, but that's basically nit picking. ----------- $2
6. GamePro - #123 - December 1998 - Tomb Raider III - This is another very large issue. The front cover has a bit of a rippling effect to it, possibly from minor water damage. This is most pronounced along the right upper edge. The two right corners of the cover have some small bends and folds. There is some residue from the removal of an address label. The back cover has a bit of rippling along the top right edge. There is a tiny rip that was taped at the top right side. The very tippy top of the corners have a slight bend or curl. The interior pages are actually in very good shape. There are a few minor blemishes on the first couple of pages. They have impressions of the folds from the front cover. The back 20 or so pages curl at the very bottom corner, slightly. It's not a big deal. Overall the pages are in very good cond. --------- $2.25
1. GamePro - #163 - April 2002 - Virtua Fighter 4 - Front cover has a large fold on the bottom half of the magazine. There are also some folds / bends at the bottom right corner. There are some other minor scuffs and imperfections on the front cover. Back cover has a crease or indentation running from top to bottom in the middle. The top left corner has a very small fold. There is some discoloration / fading along the spine. In the first 1/3rd of the magazine, the pages have a slight curl at the very bottom corner. The last 10 or 20 pages of the magazine have a faint impression of the crease from the back cover. Overall, the interior pages are actually in pretty decent shape. ------------------------------------ $1.50
2. GamePro - #136 - January 2000 - Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation - Front cover has some rippling from possible water damage. There is a large fold / bend in the upper right corner. There are a few small folds / bends in the bottom right corner. Back cover also appears to have rippling from water damage. Back cover has a number of small folds in the top and bottom corners on the left side. There is a bit of color fading to both the front cover and back cover, but it's a bit more pronounced on the back cover. Most pages have a bit of rippling at the very bottom and very top of the page, likely due to water damage. Bottom line, this issue is not in collectors condition. It's more of an issue to keep in your bathroom, and if it falls into the toilet, oh well, lol. ----------- $1.00
3. GamePro - #153 - June 2001 - Harry Potter - Front cover has a small scuff mark near the bottom right edge of the cover. It's not that big a deal. Overall, the front cover is actually in very good condition. Back cover is in good condition, with some minor scuff marks, with a tad bit of dis-colorization or fading. Interior pages are in excellent condition. If the front and back covers were in excellent condition, this magazine would be labeled as mint condition. --------------- $2
1. Next-Gen - June 2000 - Omnimusha - Front cover has a bit of residue from removal of an address label. The bottom right corner has a small fold, the top right corner has a very small fold. Back cover has some folds in the upper left corner. There are some minor scuffs along the bottom edge, and very top edge of the back cover. Along the spine on the back cover it has some wear and tear / discolorization or fading. First 40 or so pages have a faint impression of the fold / bend from the upper right corner of the cover. There is also a small impression from the bottom right corner of the cover. They are more pronounced in the earlier pages and then they fade away. The back half of the magazine has a bit of rippling at the very top and bottom of the pages, this is an impression left over from the scuffs at the top and very bottom of the back cover. There is also a bit of an impression of the bent top corner on the back of the cover. Other than all that, the interior pages are in good condition. -------------- $2.50
2. Next-Gen - May 2001 - Halo - Front and back cover is worn / weathered. First 50 pages or so have a curl at the very bottom corner. It's much more pronounced, with more bends / folds in the first 20 pages or so, and then just a normal curl for the next 30 pages or so. Other than that, the interior pages are actually in pretty good condition. This magazine is obviously not in collectors condition. This is more of a magazine to keep in your bathroom or car for emergency reading material. -------------- $1.25

This is more of a magazine to keep in your bathroom or car for emergency reading material. -------------- $1.00
