Folks, I have been a subscriber to TBM since before the premier issue came out. I have every single issue from that one in the fall of '89 to the present. They are starting to take up space and I am considering putting my collection up for sale but have no idea of a fair price. Anybody know what they might be selling for???

I had the same problem and gave mine away to a deserving attendee at the TN Classic last month. He was retired and migrated to Florida when the Michigan winters set in. I figured he'd get good use of them.

Seen people try to sell them before. Didnt work out. I'd guess $50.00 plus or minus? Good Luck!

$7.45 tyd - what is your address and I'll send you the check. :D

I just went to TBM and they are selling the back issues for $5.00 each......you could probably sell them for $75.00-$100.00....that is,of course,just a guess.Something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it,but it's worth every penny of that.

There is a near complete set on the big auction right now. Watch what it brings and you will have an idea.

I have been a subscriber since the Premier Issue too. I tried to sell them a few times over the years. Even tried the big auction but the bidding was too low.
Several years ago a set would go for $250-$300.
I recently sold the whole collection to a friend for $100. He was happy, I was happy. It was tough to let it go, especially a few of the issues that meant something to me. I'm just glad to have some space back in my bow room.

Depends on if you want to use **** or not. If you use the auction format depends on how many bidders. I can say I sold a group of 30 for $100 last year before Christmas. Timing is everything. Good Luck John

You might be able to get quite a bit for a couple of the quarterly issues (the one with Fred Bear on the cover) They seem to sell for the most. The others are not worth very much 50 to 100 dollars
