(apologies if this is the wrong forum for this...) can anyone tell me if they ship the mags in bags, or loosely? i've been thinking about subscribing (since i'd be saving roughly eighty three billion and twelve dollars, that way) but it hinges on how the mags are shipped, and how they are when it come to customer service in regards to me getting a mag that's well beyond destroyed in the post. anyone have any experience when it comes to this?

I haven't had a subscrip in years since I buy them at the store, cause the US post office tends to toss magazines around. So I'm not sure if they are bagged or not.
However, when I did have a subscrip and some of the issues were ruined, all I had to do was call them up or email them and they sent me a free replacement. |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

I subscribe to Dragon, and it indeed comes poly-bagged (like any sealed magazine you'd find on a newsstand), with a simple address label stuck near a corner.
Unfortunately, I have a similar problem as Kuje when it comes to receiving my magazines completely intact (my postman always folds it in half, for some inane reason), but I get them nonetheless. In those events where an issue is destroyed or doesn't arrive at all, Paizo customer service is extremely helpful, and has been willing to send a replacement copy without any argument whatever. |

I've largely encountered the same problems as both Kuje and Brian, when it comes to receiving my Paizo subscriptions in the mail. It's also why I've had to pick up either DRAGON or DUNGEON issues from a gaming store instead.
They are indeed good with replacements though, in case a copy is damaged. Even for those of us living outside the US.

Hm, perhaps I'm lucky, because mine tend to arrive in nice, neat order. I must have the "up side" of the postal service in my area of the US. |
