I have about 10 years of HSM and 5 of Live Steam that I am thinking
about putting on ebay. HSM are Jan/Feb 1983 to Nov/Dec 1991 and all of
1995-1996. Live Steam from 1984 to 1986 and 1995-96. Would it be
better to sell them as four sets or break them up by the year?

I think you will find that the price will stabilize right around face value.
I would offer these on this NG at face value as one collection. I have done
this a couple of times while building my collection - I'd buy a big bunch
then sell off the extras. I hate it when they break up a decent collection
into individual years.

Well, there are 50 issues at $3.50 in the big series of HSM and thought
I would be real happy with $175 but I just made the mistake of looking
through them. Forgot how good they were before Joe started saving out
the good stuff for Projects in Metal. That is when I canceled my
subscription the first time. It has the whole spring design series, my
crucible furnace, that great series on match plate casting and a whole
bunch more.

The newer years were $5 each and the old ones were only $3.50 but the
old ones are a whole lot better.

I'm beginning to have second thoughts... :-)

Sorry .. What I meant to say is: Glenn, save 'em for reading again when
you get that boat ready for the trip around the world.
