I hate to go through all of these and sell them seperately, though I may get more money for them, it just isn't worth my time now to do it. $100 shipped in the lower 48 to any GRM'er. I take PayPal. Thanks.

In reply to pete240z and mtn :

Guys I figure shipping is going to be about $30 or so, so if you want to come get them, just make it $70

I'm glad someone bought them so I don't have to constantly curse my emaciated wallet and lust after a huge and modestly priced collection of the best magazine ever that is a mere 70 miles away.

I once got a few free back issues of some magazines (none were GRM though) from a member here a while back. I was expecting 30-40 issues, but I got HUNDREDS of issues of many different magazines. It compressed the rear suspension of the Aspire about 3 inches.

it was HEAVY.

maroon92. That was from me and you got 8 or 9years worth of several different titles, almost 600 magazines IIRC. You taking them saved me a lot of gas, cuz I would have had to drive that pile to the recycling depot. It was funny watching the Aspire drag it's butt out the driveway !! Reminded me of a dog we used to have that had that habit.

Well, They are still in my possession, I plan to have them in my library when I get a house.

And thanks again.

If that's your plan, don't get a wife. It was my plan to put them in my "man-cave" at the next house, but someone else had a different idea !

my girlfriend/future wifey has no problem with them. They currently clutter our miniscule apartment. The focus of our dining room is an Audi R8 ALMS poster. The focus of our living room is my big TV and my Painting of a Ferrari 250 GTO.

Hmmm.....I have a co-worker that said similar things about his now wife in regards to a Honda Dream that was on display in their living room. It's now in his parents garage, the next state over.

That being said, I have just about every car magazine I've ever bought along with a large quantity of GRM magazines given to me by another board member and the wife doesn't care.

You'll need to log in to post.
