What am I to do with nearly the complete 1990-2012 collection?

Does anyone want these? How about the Mustang Museum?

Anyone interested in them for the cost of shipping?

WOW, not cutting anyone down, I have a bunch of them also, Someone will scarf them up from you...

I just have to laugh a little, how many times is, "How to install new carpet in your FOX body Mustang" in all those Mustang Monthly's....?
And, please remember, I am just making light of this, but maybe there is a story, "How to pick out your correct spark plug, get the right one for your trailer" next month, "How to install a 66 Shelby hood on a 65-66 Mustang"...

I think many have got board with MM and it became their demise...I personally loved getting the older ones! Remember the newspaper versions? I do get a little reminiscent when I look at prices back in the late 80's....That was a great hobby back then!

If I upset anyone, let me know and I will delete my comment.

Doesn't the US Postal service have a drastically reduced rate for shipping printed materials?

I think it was intended for books, but any printed material qualifies.

I had a college friend who moved cross country via the USPS. As long as 51% of the box content was printed material, it would get the reduced rate.

That was a few years ago though.

I believe that it is called the "Media Rate".

I got rid of mine about 7 years ago, put a craigslist ad and a local guy came and got all of them.

Keep in mind that "Media Rate" mail cannot contain advertising so magazines such as this are a no-no.  It's great for shop manuals and the like but not magazines.
That's not to say that you can't do it but the PO randomly opens these boxes to make sure that they conform to postal rules and regulations.
A better route might be FedEx home delivery or USPS Priority flat rate shipping.  I know as I do lots of shipping.

Would that include 20-30 year old, no longer valid advertising?

I recall grabbing a stack from you at SAAC something 6 years ago (Road America). If we were closer I'd unburden you to the tune of few piles.

One would think not but ANY advertising, no matter how old, is not allowed.  Many still ship magazines using Media but there's always the chance of your shipment being the one that gets checked.
