Yeah, I'd like to get those magazines as well. Anyone know any good deals?

By the way - have you ever tried ordering magazines on eBay? It can be a pain sometimes cause the delivery time takes forever, but you can often find some good deals if you are willing to wait and follow up with the seller.

ilovehoneybleu - Nope, never tried eBay, for anything (one of the few people left I know) I just don't feel comfortable with it and don't feel like getting into it, thanks for the suggestion though!

eBay no longer allows the sale of magazine subscriptions. I used to buy them through eBay and it was basically hit-or-miss. My last 2 subscriptions were from "reputable" sellers with over 1000+ feedback; yet, they did not arrive. The lame excuse is you have to wait at least 12 weeks to ask about the subscription since it can take that long for a subscription to start. By then, the fraudulent sellers would have taken your money and it's too late to file with paypal. I suppose it was happening so frequently that ebay had to stop allowing for the sale of these subscriptions.

Amazon just had a promotion, if you bought something over $25 in apparel(only sold by amazon) you would get lucky free for one year. You might check to see if they still have it going on.

I had the very same thing happen to me on 4 subscriptions...Elle & Vogue for BOTH my sister and I. From one seller, I had ordered these magazines for both she and I and wasn't able to file a claim with PP. Thank goodness, I only lost about $36!

BTW...just found this offer for Lucky. I paid the same amount ($9.97)for my renewal.

I recently purchased my subscription of lucky for $6.99 on eBay, there are still some sellers who sell subscriptions. Instead of searching for "subscriptions" just type in the magazine you want. I've ordered about 20 mags off ebay in the past & never had a problem. It just takes about 2 months or so. Just pay for your item w/paypal through your credit card & if something happens then you should be protected through them.
