Unless there was another mag called Dark Star, if you have issues 1 & 2, then you have the complete run.  Info is a bit spotty other than that though... :|

Are they UK fanzines or Australian?  Here's the last auction for them that I watched but this might be a second attempt called Dark Star II (I don't know much about them):

Yes Rakeesh is right, 5 issues in the UK, and $$ is ok as well..

Can you do some pics of the items as please also be aware of this posting

(I bought these off a guy in the States, I don't have any reason to suspect yours)

I don't have them on hand but prob remember what they look like, I have bookmarked a nice traveller site at home with scans of most items, I had thought that I had posted here but I can't find it...

Yes there is an Aussie Dark Star and Dark Star II, it looks like at least the first one was able to be downloaded from the net see this
