Vette(s): 1972 LT-1 convertible with factory air. 2017 Black Rose Grand Sport M7 convertible.
I have saved most of the Corvette magazines that I subscribed to since about 1996.  Yes I'm a bit of a pack rat.  Rather than send them to the recycle bin, I'd like to see them go to a good home or some such. 

Looking on ebay, it doesn't look like I can anything for them.  Does anyone know anyone who would like them?  Are there resellers that would buy them from me?  Not looking to get rich, I just hate to throw them out.  I don't think the local library is interested in them.

Any suggestions?

I know what you mean, Gary.  I've got about 8 years of Vette and Corvette Fever stacked on a shelf in my closet.  Kinda nice having them to look back on once in awhile, but, like you, I feel they are going to waste.  Maybe stick some of them in the back of the vette and take to the Gathering... someone may want some.

Half Priced Books will buy them...they won't pay much, but it would give someone else a chance to buy and read them...
just a thought...

Maybe a local Corvette Club could auction them off at a meeting and donate the cash to a local charity.

I've got them boxed up for a guy in Lafayette La, I think it will cost about 85 bucks to send them to him from here (DFW).  I'm going to call him today and see if he still wants them for that.  It's for boxes 12x10x12 at 42lbs each and a 11x9x6 at 15lbs.
