MegaFan Issue 2 just appeared on Ebay. This magazine had a very short lifespan of only 2 years and four issues. The first issue appeared bundled with an issue of Gamefan in June 1996. I technically consider those issues as zeroes, so that puts this as the second issue of MegaFan. I have not seen many MegaFan issues listed, but with only 4 issues….I guess that is to be expected.

How did I miss this magazine? I knew that there were a few Colecovision magazines out there, but just stumbled upon this one today. Colecovision Experience apparently had a short life of only 4 magazines. The photo above shows the cover of the Premier issue, its curently on Ebay with a starting bid of $8.

So I am browsing around Ebay today looking for rare magazines, and what do I come across but the very first issue of GamePro magazine from 1989. Now I bought my copy around 4 years ago, and it set me back $50. So when I saw that this guy has his auction starting off at $4, I was a bit taken back. I will be keeping an eye on this auction as I am very curious as to what the final bid will be.
