This is my list of UK 1980's gaming magazines I have for trade. I'm interested in trading for other gaming or computer mags from 1985 and earlier. I will not sell any of these mags. My specific magazine wants are in the "Need.." bit just below but let me know if you have any other old mags as I may be interested.

I've been brutally honest with my magazine condition descriptions, so don't let that put you off. Where there isn't any comment after a mag that means it is in very good condition.

Please let me know which mags you have to trade with. Let me know the titles, issue nos, cover dates and condition. I'm sure we will be able to work out a trade.
