+evg2000 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I have 3 comic book boxes full of Nintendo power magazines. There are also some game guides, I think a Saturn mag, and some other mags. 95%+ NP. They are carded and bagged. I'm near Folsom, CA NO DRAMA means: No I won't bring them to you, or meet you somewhere. Don't ask me to mail them to you. You must come to my house via a vehicle, don't tell me you will put them in a backpack and walk miles to a bus stop. Don't whine I don't think that is too much to ask for free stuff! If you happen to have any 5 1/4 disk cases, disks, or old Commodore stuff that you want to drop off while you are here I wouldn't object. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youxia Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Phew, that is a generous offer. Nintendo mags fetch wild prices on ebay these days. Perhaps reconsider? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps reconsider? Thanks, I know but I don't want to go through the work. I figure about $500+ if they were ebayed. Hoping they can go to someone who will appreciate them. If someone flips them, then I guess lucky them! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapitanClassic Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) Very generous for someone in the area. The NP: super C cover is issue #12. Around that time Nintendo released FF1 guide (might be in the lot). I will just have to live vicariously through archive.org https://archive.org/details/NintendoPower1988-2004 save_the_drama.avi Edited November 2, 2021 by CapitanClassic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draxxon Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 There is a decent amount of money in vintage print ads. I'm sure you have some cool ones in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw this post yesterday and immediately pulled out my BNYUFF Year Two vhs to watch Lick of Fury it after reading this post! save_the_drama.avi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 PMed to claim, assuming they’re still available. And no I will not be flipping them on eBay if I get them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're looking to sell or trade some I have 1-76 minus 4 in that stretch (52, 61, 63, 75), then I have a few other random issues up to around pokemon gold/silver era. I'd be happy to trade/buy some of those off you I'm missing if they're in there. Minimally I've been thinking of taking it up through the N64 end of life/gbc end or through GBA/GC stuff potentially but that's long term. I'm not too fussy about condition, shocked I even have what I do currently due to some dumb luck in the last couple of years now. What I have are probably C+/B- and up, a few missing posters, but nothing ripped apart or missing anything worse so I can't complain.

My plan is to take what I want out of these boxes, let a buddy of mine who also collects magazines do likewise, and then donate the rest (along with some other magazines that I'm getting rid of) to the Video Game History Foundation for use in fulfilling their "blind box" subscriptions. I've already had a couple of people reach out to me who are looking for particular issues, and I just don't have time to sift through these based on peoples' requests. I'm sure that all of the issues you're looking for are readily available on eBay. Sorry! Edited November 7, 2021 by CGQuarterly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Yeah they are, but as things go, everyone thinks if the shit says Nintendo on it, it's worth a LOT. So it's usually a battle to get the non ridiculously posted starting price ones as much as luck and timing if someone else wants to get pushy about it. It's why I have those few holes, like issue 75 is virtual boy with glasses and some cards, trolls want $40-50 but it'll sell actively with luck, on an open value for half so they just sit and sit. It gets old, then you stop bothering to look so when stuff like this pops up, it doesn't hurt to ask. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
