Hi Brittany,

I am wondering how you valued these?

They are certainly not "rare" and most definitely not "worth a lot of money"!

E.G.

National geographic Magazine January 1974 | eBay

This is a UK ad. and in the USA would be half that due to much greater availability.

The older ones are obviously worth more but the market is quiet, sluggish or dead depending on who you talk to.

I suggest you try heartforethiopia.org who is a big seller on ebay.

Good luck!

I’m just going by what I was told about them on multiple occasions . 
a lot of people have told me that they are indeed rare especially having more than one copy or ones with vinyl records or maps in them. 
we have plenty with the maps untouched and the vinyls untouched . As well as sought after copies of the magazines . If you’re saying they aren’t worth that much then I think I’ll have to go back through and get them evaluated or apraised . Thanks for letting me know . 

Thank you !
