For artists and collectors sponsored by Intercal...your mohair supplier and Johnna's Mohair Store
I have just attended a show in Victoria Australia where some New Zealander's complained about not being able to find the magainze in shops and then noticed that some UK people have lost their distributor over there. This ensured that I phoned our people here to find out the background of the issues are and this is what I was told.
1/ Most overseas companies who offer subscriptions and distributions are re-sellers they buy the magazines in bulk from us and then choose to sell subscriptions. The subscriptions are not owned by us nor do we ever have acccess to the details.
2/ No company has exclusive rights and there may be more than one company offering distribution of the magazine in each area.
3/ Distribution will always be months behind Australia as the heavy bulk parcels are often sent by sea and takes months to get there.
So.........given that the Australian dollar is very low to most overseas currencies at the moment a direct subscription with us in Australia is a terriffic option and you will receive the mag within day of it being released here and your subscription will be guarenteed by us and not the whims of a re-seller. All the amounts quoted are in AUD due to the world currency fluctuations at the moment.
So please.......if you want to get your copy no problems, early and at a good price now is the time to subscribe.
Sandra,
Thankyou for looking into the stituation regarding the loss of distributor for Bear Creations - as I said in my MIS-mailed note, I was extremely upset about the shoddy I was treated by Auscraft.
HOWEVER I do love your magazine and would love to get it direct from the publisher but I need your help with something - PLEASE could you tell me the price for overseas subsriptions.
I do wish I had known about getting that way before - the wait used to be a KILLER.
I appreciate that you was concerned enough to look into the matter and whilst it is no consolation to know I have lost my magazines at least I know that there are others, including Woodland Publishing also out of pocket.
I wait your reply re overseas subs.
Thanking you
Karon
