Old Magazines In Bkk?

[gelfball]

a bit of a strange question - but are there any shops or markets with old issues of English-language magazines in BKK?

i find buying new magazines in shops like Kunikuniya to be extremely expensive - but don't mind reading older issues...

I found a great shop in KL for discounted magazines because they were only a few months old...

fashion, art, architecture, politics, health, etc....

thanks in advance!

I remember seeing some older magazines in Jatujak, in the book section-- they had an original National Geo with the girl with the eyes, they wanted 1000 baht, but there was a bin with 50 baht magazines.

There was an American Women's Club resale shop on Soi 49 near (or at?) the Racquet Club. I bought some old magazines there a few years ago but have not been there recently. Might be worthwhile checking out but suggest you call first as they were not open every day.
