The Def Guide to Zzap!64

Has anyone see a issue #1 anywhere and if so how much do they normally go for ? I think it's prob quite rare, I'm willing to pay a good hunk of change for a good copy. I've got a mint crash and just a few months ago managed to snag a pristine copy of zzap!64 both in nice custom made frames on my wall



Please note the zzap!64 pictured above is an my old damaged one, I now have the mint one in the frame

They look nice framed!

But I'm a bit confused in that you say you've just got hold of a "new" issue 1 but then ask how much it would cost for a issue 1 copy... &-)

[edit] Just read the subject!! it's all clear now. Dunno about the price of a C&VG issue 1 though [/edit]

Zzap's can be picked up a lot cheaper these days then was the case a few years ago, so you might get a good issue one for £40 or so...., which is very cheap when you consider an issue 1 of Retro Gamer (around 2004!!) goes for almost the same

Thanks for the reply, Yes that's what I paid for the mint condition Zzap more with the frame though , I't a C&VG #1 I'm after now

Edit** Just as a side note it's harder to find a mint issue#1 of zzap, I.E with out compo cut outs and writing in them.

Just as an update to this thread, I did eventually manage to get a copy of C&VG #1 very good condition for it's age too>
Also my better copy of Zzap!64 issue one(this is mint as you can see)>

Very, very nice. Wish my Zzap issue 1 looked like that but I'm still happy to have one anyway.

BTW, I edited your message to have the images stored on this site and displayed as attachments so they don't disappear like your original one from years ago. Hope you don't mind.

That's fine buddy, That's image shack for you I use photobucket now, I'll post a few more of other issue one mags I have later plus my Ultimate play the game shrine
