Title: magazine
Post by: maritimer on March 03, 2014, 07:21:10 am
Just wondering if anyone from Canada has received the March issue of Creative Woodworks & Crafts yet?  If so, when and did the Feb. issue come on time?

The reason I ask is my Feb. issue didn't come so I contacted them - they would send out another and it would be 3-4 weeks delivery (4 weeks later I got it).  Now the March issue is out and I haven't got mine yet.  I have a friend who is having the same problem.  So, just wondering if its maybe just our area (NB) or if it's a problem going to all of Canada.  I've been subscribing to this mag. for 5 years and never had a problem before.  It's a little frustrating, they have my money and I have to chase for the issues.

Unfortunately, I have heard that many of us here in Canada have been getting issues late. I talked to my editor (Debbie) about it last week and she is equally frustrated.  I understand that they are working on it with their distributor and hopefully they will clear it up soon. As a contributor to the magazine, I realize the frustration of not receiving the copies and having to call for them. 

Nonetheless, if you aren't getting your issues on time, I would call again. I think the more that people call the harder they will work to get the situation rectified.  I am happy you receive the magazine and I hope you want to continue to do so.  I am also interested to see how many others are waiting as well.  I will certainly convey the messages to the office. :)

Thanks Sheila.  Does Debbie know why our issues are late or not at all unless you call?  Appreciate anything you can do to light a fire under someone and get things back to normal.  I really like this magazine and don't want to have to start running around town trying to find the latest issue...and that's only good if you know when it's out to start running! :)

Unfortunately, I don't know how much "pull" I have as far as subscriptions. I have had to call on my own as well.  I will express my concerns when I talk to them and I will let you know what they say. :)

Hi Sheila
I live in Ontario and haven't received the March issue yet.
