Title: Every issue of TBM. Worth?
Post by: GameGetter on November 08, 2009, 08:06:00 PM
I Have every issue of TBM, all in good condition and in the TBM binders. Any idea of there worth and would anyone here be interested in them? Not sure if I am willing to sell just yet, mostly just curious

find out what the cover stand price is and multiply that by the number you have and that should be the lowest you would take(plus the binders and your time).

My complete set is priceless.
 
 That said, there have been a couple sets for sale over the last few years listed in the classifieds and it seems that it is a difficult thing to get much out of.  A lot of folks just want some specific issues, but as far as the whole group of them, it is difficult to get what I would consider a good price for them as a whole.  Probably the best way to get a good return on them is to sell them in lots of a year of two at a time on the auction site.
 But you never know, you may meet up with the right person that appreciates them and is will to pay a fair price for them.  
 Most in good condition should sell for a couple bucks a piece, but there are 3 or 4 that are really hard to find that can be worth a great deal by themselves.

I recently sold my entire set (no binders) for $200 shipping included.  There actually is not a lot of interest surprisingly.  I had a couple of other offers that were a good bit lower.

You just have to find the right buyer,I followed a couple of full sets on e**y.One went for $140 and the other set went for around $100.Tough guess,things today are not selling for what they are worth.

I sold a set in binders about 15 years ago for $200. This was before all the trad Internet sites had become popular. After the Internet became the media choice for most people looking for archery related info, instead of the previously popular printed material, the value of these mags dropped considerably.
