Long distance subscription


Dungeon Magazine General Discussion


Hi.

I was just wondering if anyone on this forum, who subscibes to dungeon (or dragon), lives in a european country. I would just like to check if such a subscription works or if it has difficulties. I'm thinking of subscribing but can't make up my mind if it's a good idea.

If your'e wondering I live in sweden.

I'd like to know the answer also. I'd prefer receiving the magazine home than hope it has not been sold out in my shop !!


I live in Norway and started a subscription to both Dungeon and Dragon Mag. last year around these times. I have never had any problems with deliveries of both mags, maybe they take some time to arrive now and then, but they always arrive :)

By reading about all the problems a lot of the US crowd have with deliveries, it amazes me how the US postal service is :-p

Living in France, I have no problems with the delivery, even when I ordered older issues.

Living in Belgium, subscribed to Dungeon, they deliver, the time to arrive is allways variable, sometimes it takes weeks, other times it seems to arrive allmost a week later. It allways arrived before the next issue was sent out though.

I subscribed recently to dragon and will see how that goes. It seems a subscription is better though since the game shops in my city are waiting for dungeon & dragon magazines from 2 months ago.


I´m living in Germany, and had subscribed both mags in october. Delivery takes anything from one to four weeks, but to date, all issues arrived. My local games shop did not get them faster, and it is cheaper subscribing. So its good for me.

Thank you for the answers. Subscribing seems to work just fine, now I just have to get the money I need to start.

I live in Germany as well and I had both VERY positive AND negative experiences so far. :(

I started subscribing to both Dungeon and Dragon a bit more than one year ago. Delivery by then was catastrophic, a lot of subscribers complained about delivery problems in these message boards, some issues never reached me and I still had to buy them at my local gaming store.

Paizo took customer complaints seriously, though. From then on issues were sent by a different intermediate distributor in U.K., subcriptions with delivery problems were automatically prolonged by one free issue and delivery worked out fine.

Last month I prolonged my subscription. Ever since the old problems start again, as if there had not been all these problems before! One month after prolonging my subscription I received another letter, proposing me to prolong my subscription - according to Paizo subscription service just a coincidence. I still wait for my first issue to arrive (or rather: I was forced to buy it again at my local gaming store before it was sold out), so far I should already have received Dungeon #130 and Dragon #339...

Just before christmas I wrote a posting to this very message board, provocantly titled "European Subscribers = 2nd Class Customers?". I received an answer by Paizo which sums up pretty much which peculiarities are to be taken into account when subscribing from abroad:

Ok. Probably I just have bad luck. But so far this happened at the start of each of my subscriptions...

I will try to reach Paizo customer service by phone today. If anyone is interested, I can tell you about the outcome...
