Garage Sale Discussion Thread

[SkyWarp91]

So I've decided to clean my room in the upcoming holiday break and remembered that I have heaps of children's books, videogame and empire magazines. I don't care for them anymore and would like to get rid of them - should I sell them in a garage sale or is that too much effort and I'll be better off giving them away (to salvation army?)

You could always try the old Lions Club markets, you know where you pay like $5 and can sell off your stuff, Flea Market!! That was the word I was after. Game collectors (like me) always trawl those places....:rolleyes:

Past experience in selling kids books and Empire mags here in Perth were not very successful for me. I was lucky to get 20c each for a magazine at the markets. Your best bet is to sell them for auction on eBay as a whole lot to someone local.

I sold a bunch of music magazines (Metal Hammer, Revolver etc) on eBay recently, some I only got 99 cents for but some others I ended up getting $15 for. In a few cases, I got more than I originally paid! I recommend eBay.

dont suppose any of the books are from the "usborne puzzle adventure" series? i have a 95% complete collection and have been eying up the remainder on ebay, but its mostly reprints with new style covers rather than the originals

No more like Star Wars Cross-section books

eBay's your best bet dude, it's a targeted resource for collectors and I think you'll have the most luck there. ;):)

What sort of Star Wars Cross Section books are you talking about?
I've got the following and wouldn't mind adding any others that I don't already have:

Episode I: Incredible Cross Sections
Episode I: The Visual Dictionary
Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary


I've no idea if there were any others made, but if there were I'd certainly be interested. :)

Videogame magazines like Game, Hyper and PC Powerplay. Also have a few old PC games like Freedom Fighters

EDIT - I'll clean out my room this week and I'll put my junk on the forums here for selling
