Hi,
I am new at this but would like some advice on the literature that I have. My husband passed away 3 years ago and was an avide woodworker and collector of many FW magazines and Fine Woodworking On magazines plus Woodworkers Journal and American woodworker. I would appreciate your views on how to price this literature for sale. I have contacted the ad department at FW and was told that this is a good sounding board.
I have all FW from fall of 1976 thru 2003,
21 Fine Woodworking On books,
147 Woodshop News from 1989-02
47 Woodworkers Journal 1981 thru 2001
81 American Woodworker 1988-2001.
As you can see I am well blessed with woodworking magazines. Any advice that you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

seems like the perfect ebay situation. Let the market price it for you.
Be careful how you word your ad and make sure the buyer is responsible for shipping (or you can sell it to be picked up only if you live in a more metropolitan area.)
I would agree that eBay is a good option, most specifically with the set of FWW magazines. The 1st 3 are, from what I remember, the most sought after, and selling the other individually would be tedious to say the least, so selling as one big lot would likely be the way to do it. If you need any help and don't have someone close-by who is skilled at eBay, let me know. I can help.
