Make, Giant Robot, and Vice Magazine Up On My Auction Block (Ebay)

Looking for some great issues of any of these magazines? Huh? Huh? Well I’ve got a few lots up for auction on my ebay. Make is an awesome DIY technology on your own time build it yourself mag. Giant Robot is Asian pop culture and beyond including tons of great bands, amazing artists, movies, books; they introduced me to David Choe (literally and figuratively) and Kaws (featured in one of the issues). Speaking of David Choe he’s a common link between them and Vice magazine. Vice is rogue journalism, debauchery, and tits. And they’re seemingly really becoming a legit media outlet and have an upcoming series on HBO. Auctions end Sunday and/or Monday. Click on the pictures to see the auctions. Cheers!
