Whisky Magazine and Malt Advocate Swap

Fill in the holes in your archives - 2 for 1 swap offered!


Here's the deal - I'm trying to fill in missing back issues in my collections of Whisky Magazine and the Malt Advocate and am offering to trade 2 duplicate copies for any single copy of the missing issues I need.   The duplicates I have are all clean and in good, pre-read condition at worse.  In the case of Malt Advocate, I note if the shipping label is attached to the cover and any other damage / problems other than the norm for a magazine that's been read a few times.  A few are unread and I've noted that as well.

If interested in a swap please review the tables below and send me an email at:

 magswap (at) smwhisky.com

describing your proposed swap.  I'll do my best to respond within a couple of days and will update the listings below to keep them current. 

I may consider selling any extra copies once I end up filling the holes in my collections.  Send me an email if interested in purchasing copies at the end of this swap and I'll add you to a post-swap contact list.  I don't think I'll be selling any until mid-summer 2006 at the earliest.

Thanks, and slainte mhor!

NOTE:  The following mag list is badly out of date by at least a couple of years.  I've obtained many of the issues I was looking for (some in response to this offer and the rest on eBay) and will update this page sometime in the first quarter of 2009.  Stay tuned - I also may end up selling my duplicates on eBay if I ever start selling there.
