Came across a stack of catalogs that my uncle had saved over the years.
Any value or interest in these catalogs or do I just put them in the
burn barrel?  They are mint and in plastic sleeves.

Thanks.

Don't burn them. Somebody here should take almost all of them.

I would love to get the Revell,Aurora, Monogram, ITC, Hasegawa, Scale
Model Planes, Matchbox, 1959 Hobbies Are Family Fun, 1960 Hobbies For
Everyone and Airfix.

Paying for postage is a given. Is there anything that you are looking
for?

TIA

Tom

I'd love the one each of the AMT '62 catalogues.  You can contact me at
the verizon address if you're interested.  I started building model cars
in '62 so they would definitely be of interest.

I would sell them.
The auroa should go for some big bucks.
Except for the RC catalogs you should be able to get a few dollars for
each.

I can't believe people on this sight would rip you off and not tell you
the value of these items.

I didn't mention it out in the open but figured on discussing it with
the gentleman person-to-person.  Sorry if I unintentionally misled
anyone.

And I asked him what he was looking for with the intention of making a
good trade.

Accusing people of trying to rip someone off isn't a real good idea
when you don't have a clue.

At this point an appology, along with your real name, "Beaver", would
be called for. I don't think that we'll get either from someone who
appears to be no more than plonk bait.
