Rules

Keep it civil.
No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Old issues of White Dwarf from mid '90s - nostalgic value or straight into the recycling bin? (lemmy.world)

Going through some boxes and found a stack of old White Dwarf. I'll keep the first issue I ever bought as a memory but planning to get rid of the rest. Just wanted to check if there are people collecting these before they go into the recycling bin. If anyone's interested I can make a list of which ones I have, and I'll send them to anyone willing to pay for postage. Located in Sweden.

Thanks for the tip, but I asked a while ago and they gave me a weird look and said they weren't interested in any old games. They don't sell any second hand stuff, and I suppose they rather sell something new to people instead of helping people find new owners. I did however bring all of my unpainted minis to a games convention a few years ago and traded them for other games. They didn't want rules / starter boxes or magazines though, I think that's more difficult to sell.

Melast paid for shipping so all the old WDs are on their way to their new home though :) I still have the Citadel Miniatures 1994 catalogue if anyone is interested, but it's mostly black and white photos of unpainted minis and it weights 750g. I.e. a bit expensive to mail and probably not very interesting for most people unless they're collectors

I don’t know about selling directly to shops. A lot of owners can be weird about that. I’ve made plenty of deals with people playing at the shops, though.
