Answer 1

Depends on where you live: in Manchester there are places like the Paramount Book Exchange which deal in trivia, memorabiliia, "modern antiques", et c.

There's a place at the top of Newton Street, just off Piccadilly, whose name I am trying frantically to remember, where when I last looked there were boxes and boxes of old 70's 80's and 90's magazines. (Bought in from house clearances et c) I'm sure they had some FAB 208's, these were going for about £1.50 a mag.

Frantic memory has worked - it's called the Emporium. (second hand magazines, books and records)

Be warned: most of these places also deal in porn mags, so your reputation might get shot if anyone you know sees you walking in! Although the Emporium is OK, its mucky books are sealed off in a back room and aren't "in yer face" as much as in other dealers.

Hope this helps!
