    I have a collection of Cavallino Magazines since 2/88; issues 43-155. Any idea what they are worth? Would like to sell them all and have 16 extra copies of different issues. They are all in perfect condition. I would like to avoid EBay.

    Cavallino Magazine lists prices for back issues on their website. Ebay prices range from $6 to $30 each and more for real early issues. Exactly how many issues does that include? I may have an interest.

    I figure the average issues sells for about $12-15. Should put your collection somewhere between $1500 and $2000? Is that what you had in mind?

    Yes; it seems that there's not much interest in a complete collection. Maybe you would better sell individual copies.

    Best Regards from Germany

    I would suggest that you do try eBay. I think your price sounds fairly reasonable.

    I have had several extra issues on Ebay for quite some time now. In my estimation it would take five to ten years to sell all of these individually.
    Many Ebayers want to buy things for next to nothing, $4 or $5 per issue. This in my opinion is a giant waste of time. The collection is worth more as a collection IMHO. Hang in there Paulie!

    You may want to try selling your entire collection to these people:
