I've gotten a few e-mails, but only Ryan's throwing a price out in the open. My copies aren't really for sale, but from what I hear there's quite a disconnect between the scarcity of these mags and the amount people are willing to pay. (Here's a hint, $15 doesn't talk, especially for a mag that has a $13 newstand price..)

I paid $3 for Touching the Void. I still fail to see the deal in $13 for <10 articles. And notice that $15 was seen as a ridiculous offer. $46 was not taken up either must we assume that we are to pay $5 an article for a good magazine? >$50? Pretty expensive for a magazine. If you are really getting it just for the articles, why not download it?

Alpinist is an independant magazine, not run by a giant media corporation- their prices are going to be higher. The quality of Alpinist, in my opinion, is very much worth the 13 dollars. So- anyone out there with an Alpinist 0?

The people asking for >$50 are speculators - notice no one's willing to pay that. As for downloading - you have to be a subscriber, so you only pay $11.50 an issue.
