Magazines and a signed Race & Flowers top for sale.

Dirt Disciple
I've finally dug through my old MTB stuff at my parents and, while I was too late to stop some of the mags and posters being recycled, I did manage to grab a load of magazines, an old jersey and a few other bits and pieces.

They're all for sale, but I have no idea what their value is. I know that putting up items with no price is incredibly bad form, so if someone could give me an indication of their value that would be great. I'm based in Putney, SW London, and I'd like to sell the magazines locally (I can run them over on my cargo bike). The other bits I'm happy to post at cost, although I like the human touch so local sales are preferred.

The jersey is a 1996(?) MBUK/Mint Sauce Race & Flowers top (the orange one).From memory it's a large, but it fits more like an XL or XXL from contemporary cycling brands (Rapha and the like) - the sizing isn't far off a large t-shirt. It's in good condition and is signed by Jo Burt with a small doodle. Pictures to follow.

The magazines (all in fair condition unless otherwise stated) are:

I've also got one of the old team MBUK/Specialized water bottles and some (incomplete) MBUK, etc, sticker sheets, possibly some other stickers from the period 1994-1998. Are these worth anything? If so I can work out what I've got and snap some photos for interested parties.
 
Re:

Minifreak is in first of course, but if that doesn't go through, I'd be interested in price and pic of the top.
Thanks!
 
Re:

Thanks for the interest.

Hopefully I've attached some photos of the top showing the signature here: https://plus.google.com/105031226034682 ... exKbG5tS47, a tape measure to give an idea of the chest size and a snag on the back (I think there are 4 in all, the photo is of the worst). There are a few mud stains on the top, although they're only visible on a close inspection.

A quick Google suggests the last one went on for £40, but this is signed, so is £55 (posted within the UK) a reasonable price? If I'm way off, let me know and feel free to make me an offer.

The MTB Pros are the ones with the bound spines. Given the number of mags, is £45 (delivered, if you're within c. 8 miles of Putney) reasonable? Again, if I'm benig a dick here, call me out on it. I'm happy for interested parties to check over them, see if they're happy with the condition, if you're near Putney or Euston.

Finally, the stickers (also visible at the above link). It seems like there are more than I though, including some iron on transfers and some temporary tattoos, which I'm guessing must be pretty rare now. I'm happy to split or sell them as a lot. Some guidance on their value would be appreciated though, as I have no idea if I'm sat on something worthless or priceless.
 
Tom thanks for the pics, happily pay £50 posted. If your okay with this please PM me your PayPal email address, Tim
