Got a pile of mags, about 35 or 40.
good for School projects,bathroom reading, catching up on what you missed in the year of music/sports, .... who knows....

XXL, ESPN, Vibe, Source, Rolling Stone..........

If anyone wants them, just come get them


If nothing, they would just be expensive recycling.

We live in walking distance of Sadang Stn.

PM if interested

If you have 35 or 40 mags you can probably do better than 15,000 at the book store at the bottom of the hill in Noksapyeong. Just food for thought.

Not anymore. A certain bookstore I know now sells magazines just a tiny wincy bit above US cover price. There are even whispers of a subscription service where you can get them online. There is another pretty big surprise that is not confirmed yet so I cannot mention it

The guy next to the taco place, Chiaa? I took him seven or eight on Saturday and he gave me five bucks for them. Not great, of course, but it's that or throw them away.

Of course for all my book and magazine *purchasing* I only patronize what the book and whatthebook.com. As far as buying all that guy at the bottom of the hill does is rip off the GIs. Only a sucker would go down there to *spend* money.

No, we just started selling magazines here (for many months we were using a rip off Korean company but got rid of them). We have about 60 titles right now and will max out at perhaps two hundred in stock at the store. Eventually we will have an internet site where one can subscribe to over 5,000 titles. They are half the price of anywhere in Korea.

We will not be buying used magazines though. It's sooooo ghetto.
