I think it's a reasonable estimate. I had a big box full of them, never had them all, but had a subscription for years and lost them somehow in the years since. I've seen offers on craigslist and such and they were priced at 500$. Wish I had them too. Also, there's this post today if you didn't see it yet: https://www.voat.co/v/gaming/comments/1212119

I just looked up what Ultra Game Players magazines are going for and the first one I seen that I instantly recognized was going for 15$ USD. I had about 40 issues of Ultra Game Players. I'm guessing I had about 400 retro magazines total, so let's say I got an average of 7$ each, that's like 2800$. Even if I sold them all cheap at like 1400$ it'd be worth having kept them. I literally threw away thousands of dollars of shit that day because I was lazy and wanted to clean my room as quickly as possible.

Yeah, who would have guessed old magazines would be worth anything. It's a shame.
