Besides the "gentlemen's" magazines, of course.
I was thinking about buying another subscription off eBay, which has some sellers selling magazine subscriptions for nothin.
I bought 4 years of Maxim for $11! WOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!
I was looking to hopefully find a good audio related magazine and need some recomendations.
Thanks guys.
Mike

    I get Golf Digest, Golf Magazine and Stereophile....

    I like The Absolute Sound and there is a British hifi magazine that Russ and HBomb sent to me that is REALLY good, HIFI or something like that. It is excellent, I'll probably subscribe to that when I get home.

    S&V since the early 80's when it was Stereo Review and Stereophile.

    I've also got a stack (or 3) of Audio and digest sized Stereophile.

    For Christmas my wife got me a subscription to Audiofile magazine. Nice lay-out, good reviews and articles. The only bad part is that it's a magazine about books on tape. Ooops!

    I wouldn't have ever thought about doing a magazine subscription through Ebay. Amazing....

    How many subscriptions have you purchased from Ebay dthomps? Is it common to send the money for the auction to a person that then sends the money to the publisher? Not that we're talkin about a large sum of money, but that just seems a lil odd.......

    I had no idea about ebay for magazine subscriptions either. I substantially increased my reading material last night.

    Got 4 years of ESPN the Magazine, 3 years of Maxim, Stuff, Razor, and Discover, and 2 years of Men's Fitness all for under $25!

    Hey Brett
    I have only bought Maxim for myself, but I purchased the gal 3 subscriptions for her brithday- 2 years to Cosmo., a year to Lucky and a year to Instyle for her birthday, she loved that.
    My sister also bought 3 or 4 subscriptions, ans she just started getting them. I guess what they do is receive prices from the publisher (I suppose to move in lots, vs. one individual account) and they then try and move the publishers quota for next to nothing- not sure why, but I really dont care :lol:
    Just started getting my magazines, and I have never had a 4 year subscription to anything.
    Take care guys. Mike
