So what do you guys do with your old RC mags? I've got about 30 issues on my shelf (RC Driver, of course

), and I need to make a decision about what to do with them. I could use the shelf-space, but I'd hate to just toss them out. I thought about just clipping the articles I want and maybe scanning them in, but with 30+ issues that would be a p.i.t.a. Maybe I'll just box them up and store them for now. Like I said, I'd hate to tear them up or get rid of them. So, what do you do with your old mags?

only 30? ROOKIE! JK, my wife say's I'm a magazine whore! I have about 15 yrs of peterson 4wheel, harley mags, hot rod, super chevy,rc driver, rccar action, and some of the others. I even get rc heli from time to time and I don't even have a dang heli! It's like crack...

After about 6 months or so I donate mine to the local doctor's offices.

I'm a magazine nut too...

I collected VW magazines for years. I have a copy of every TW Trends ever made, almost every Hot VWs, and a ton of other ill fated VW mags from the past. All bagged with boards, and boxed in order.
I'm not as bad about RC magazines, though I do have several boxes of those too.

I wouldn't mind giving away a lot of my old RC mags if someone was local and wanted to pick them up. Don't F-ing ask me to ship them to you though. I'd rather use them to line my cats litter box than ship a 50 lb. box of magazines...

the best use i have found so far for old magizines is packing material. i have about 5 years of rc car action magizines in the basement

radishkid · 02-28-2007, 08:03 PM

I have old RC mags sitting on the back of the toilet. Occasionally, if I run out of paper, I rip a page out of an old RC Car Action (aka Traxxas Illustrated) to take care of business with.

Others, like RC Driver, Dirt Rag, National Geographic, and Smithsonian serve bathroom duty for about 3 issues apiece. Frankly, I only have time to read in the bathroom and plan to make a nice shelf one day.
