Good ways to sell/unload old Dragon magazines?

[Elodan]

I've been pruning my RPG collection; getting rid of things I know I'll never use. While my regular books have sold on ebay well, the individual Dragon magazines haven't. I've listed them for less than $1 a piece and $3.50 S&H.

I have 20 - 30 (maybe a little more) magazines from the d20 era.

Any suggestions for a better way to unload them? I'd rather sell/trade them than just recycle them.

Thanks.

Your FLGS may give you store credit for them. It won't be much, but obviously they aren't selling even at a really low price.

Another idea might be to list them on craigslist for sale or perhaps for trade.

Take a bunch to the post office and find out how many magazines on average add up to weight warranting $3.50 in terms of using Media mail or even regular fist class mail then relist them in "lots" of how ever many that is. They'll sell. People don't usually want to pay that much in shipping for just one magazine. People will pay that much in shipping for, say, ten magazines even if they really only need one or two of the ten.

You might have more luck selling them in one lot instead of individually. I don't know what the market is for old Dragons, though.

Yeah, the shipping price is quite possibly deterring folks. I would do as others have suggested and try listing it in a lot - either all of them or breaking it up into more manageable chunks where the shipping cost won't be so prohibitive.

Thanks for all the replies.

I had a suspicion that lots might be the way to go.
