I have many old magazines with sheets of cards in them as well as some promo sheets.

At this point they are taking up too much space and don't have any particular value. I figure I can cut out the cards and list them on ebay as oddball hand cut cards.

For the record I am NOT looking to trim cards or misrepresent what they are. I am just trying to clear a few shelves of magazines.

Any thoughts are appreciated

It really depends on how much you want to spend. A decent older manual professional matting cutter works great. I have cut up a lot of sheets with one and every card is exactly the same size.

I still have several sheets of those but they were stored in a damp basement and have that musty smell. I am not sure what to do with them now.

You could always mail them to me.
