Does anyone know where to find older issues of Threads magazine? My collection would be complete if I could find issue 18 (Aug/Sept. '88) and issue 26 (Dec '89/Jan '90). If cheap enough, I am also interested in replacing my issues 20, 21, 30, and 49 which have problems. These are too old to be sold directly by the publisher. E-bay seems the next most likely source but they don't have everything I'm looking for. Thanks!

I'm filling in my collection via Ebay. It does take some time, but eventually they all pop up. I just scored a hit with 14 early issues (mixed) for $14, inc. shipping, so it can be done (by contrast, I've seen single issues go for over $20-you just have to watch).
Edited to fix whatever went wrong with not finishing my sentances.

Just save your search and ebay will email you when it comes up. I, lucky person that I am, have many years in my collection. It's worth it.

I completed my set via Ebay too. Sometimes you need to buy a "lot" which contains some issues you already own. I did that, and then sold the duplicates here on PR. Members can benefit and fill in their gaps too. I think you'll be happy when you complete the set.
One last thought, post here in Classifieds too. I've seen members sometimes offer to sell their collection.
