An eBay and Ships Monthly magazine question...?!


Question: I have quite a collection of Ships Monthly magazines (all perfect condition from 2001-2005) and was wondering if I was allowed to sell them on eBay??
Thanks for the input

YES You can sell them! There is a SPECIFIC section in the BOOKS area for back issues of magazines.

Of couse all those magazine will weigh a bit. The problem for shipping is they are NOT considered MEDIA (as are books, CD's, DVD's, Sheet music, etc.) which is a problem because it's the cheapest way to mail them. You are taking a gamble sending them via media rate because the post office now has the right to open a package and if anything OTHER than MEDIA items have been shipped the post office has the right to charge (if they are nice) to charge you parcel post or(if they are mean) charge you priority mail driving the price very high. An alternative is filling ALL the magazines you can into a FLAT RATE priority mail box which is about $8.75--plus tracking.

The other problem you might have is I just checked, and there was only a handfull of SHIPS MONTHLY magazines for sale on eBay...(see link below for one of the magazines--but they put it in the wrong category!! ) It doesn't look like they sell. Keep putting in: SHIPS MONTHLY for a search every week. Maybe a little closer to SPRING instead of the dead of winter too would help!

An alternative way to sell them is through CRAIGSLIST in your area...(2nd link). It's a FREE ad, and you won't pay a commission. I would box them up (in a box or two) and get an idea of how much they weigh to you can add that to the text of the ad. (Actually I would try this first!!)

All else fail, donate them to a local non-profit thrift store or if you have the space, keep them!

All the best!
