MAGAZINE LOST IN THE POST?
MAGAZINE LOST IN THE POST?
Over the years I have had a number of subscribers approach me saying they
never got their magazines and they must have been lost in the post. However,
on about three occasions, as I do hear things and word does get back to me,
they were not lost in the post but given away to a non-subscriber whose pic-
ture or an article including them was printed in a certain copy. I do hate being
taken advantage of as the magazine runs on a shoestring.
The readers then claim the magazine must have been lost in the post,
so I send them another one. I do know that things get lost in the post and I
have serious first-hand experience of it. However, in future I will not send an-
other copy but (no offence), will appeal to any reader who has finished with a good clean copy to
send it on, especially as I do not print a lot of spare copies.
