WANTED: Any unwanted MTB Magazines for new bike shop

[jamiekirkham]

Hi guys

Me and a friend are opening a new independent bike shop near old street, East London. We are looking to have a old/retro mtb magazine/book library for customers to peruse and enjoy whilst waiting for on the spot repairs, or just when hanging out in the shop...

I'll be honest and say that we wouldn't be able to offer any money for magazines (apart from postage should that be the case) as we are opening on a shoestring budget, but if any of you kind souls out there have unwanted collections/books or a few mags and would be willing to donate some to us, then I assure you it will go to a good home and will give you a warm fuzzy feeling inside knowing you helped with opening an honest mechanic run bike shop. We will be sure to give you a nice little hook up on mechanic work etc should you be local and need our services....

Many thanks in advance

Jamie

Re:

Always collecting. Where are you and what you have? Our goal was to collect every Mbuk ever released and we have a bunch of other titles in the collection. it somewhat took a back seat cos the shop got busy. Certainly nothing to complain about

Re: mags wanted

I have most if not all mbuk from 1997 to 2002 with some mbr titles and a few mbr international's along with about 100 cycling weekly's...
In Birmingham by the way...
