Please excuse this if it has been asked and/or answered elsewhere. I haven't seen the answer, so …
How EXACTLY will Pathfinder be shipped? I ask as I haven't subscribed to any gaming magazine since the 80's. I got tired of the magazine(s) being trashed by the US Postal Service and having no replacement options (TSR, Avalon Hill, and SPI did NOT reply to requests). So, I bought them at my FLGS or a bookstore. I intend(ed) on buying Pathfinder this way, too.
NOW, though, I am SORELY tempted to subscribe to Pathfinder (as a Charter member) JUST to get the added access to the pdf's AND the free printed copy of the Rise of the Runelords Player's Guide!
Sooo, will Pathfinder be shipped in such a manner to allay my concerns that the US Postal Service won't or CAN'T trash it? Things like a padded mailer? Or cardboard inserts to prevent folding? What? How?
