[QUOTE="lior_shapira, post: 2076395, member: 12019"] [B]Warning: Kind of a rant[/B] Back in December Erik Mona started a thread here about dragon and dungeon magazines, and why people don't subscribe to them... it was an interesting read and in the end I was convinced. I've bought several issues while abroad and really enjoyed the new format of Dragon, and decided the prices for international subscriptions were fair. So I bought a 2 year subscription to Israel of Dragon magazine (that was on the 3rd of December 2004). On January 4th 2005 I've seen in the Paizo website that my first issue was shipped. Today is March 4th and guess what? I haven't yet gotten the January issue. Let me point out that I buy rpg books all the time from the united states, mostly from Amazon, and I always use the slowest shipping method. And yet, I've received 3 packages from Amazon in the last 2 months while waiting for my flimsy Dragon magazine. So I sent them an email today asking to cancel my subscription, it doesn't seem rational to me that in these modern days shipping a magazine takes over 2 months. Its not like they're sending it by steamboat (or are they?). Israel is far away from the united states, but even if I strapped a letter to the back of a sea turtle it would have gotten here faster. So... that's it, I'm out of wind, sorry to have taken all this frustration out on you, forum readers ;) hoping for better :) lior [/QUOTE]
