    hi all do you think these are worth selling, it’s a full set of vintage encyclopedia of gardening

    If not I’ll probably go through them to see if there is anything useful and compost/recycle the rest

      You never know, James, there are quite a few collectors out there, but I don't think they'd fetch a high price.:dunno::snorky:

      That’s what I was thinking I was looking at 10p to 20p a mag but selling them as a full set so if it’s a 100 mags that’s not much...I do need to go and count them

          If I were you @Jimb0b I would stick them on eBay with a low start price (collection only) and see what happens. Even if someone is interested at 99p it would maybe help with another love for gardening, and so much better than throwing them out. :)

            That's a good idea of Tetter's. You could also try Gumtree if you have a group near you.
