We are currently moving out of our house and one of the things that I have that I don’t feel like carrying over to my new house is a rather heavy box filled with old porno mags. I don’t think that is really the sort of thing they let you post on craigslist, so I am not quite sure what to do with it. While I am at it, I have some ammo that I don’t want either. What is the best way to give this stuff away? I do have a 19 y.o. nephew, but he lives about 70 miles away and I don’t think he is that into that kind of thing anyway. Thanks for your help, Rob ---

Take the ammo to the local cops and leave the box of porn out in the woods for some kid to find. You’ll make the kid’s (and all his friend’s) day and the cops will get some target practice. ---

Magazines? Kids today can’t masturbate to magazines. They have the intarweb. Full motion video with sound. I haven’t given myself the _devil’s handshake_ with printed material since 2000. ---

Really, people give away actual sex on craigslist, so I’m sure that pictures of naked people will be no problem whatsoever. But I like the idea of leaving it next to the nearest all-boys high school, if you can do it without causing a ruckus or getting it snatched up by adults. Hard to think of a better match between supply and demand. ---

There are adult book/video stores that buy old magazines in good condition. I’m sure you can list this kind of stuff on a Web site. ---

Donate the porn to your local library or just drop it off at the nearest rectory; build a fire in your back yard and toss the ammo in. Or build a fire and toss the ammo and porn in. Or just leave it all behind when you move. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/giving-away-old-porno/439904.md?page=2)
