Gee, thanks to all involved!

I never thought the price was that high considering what we used to pay for mags from the UK but a price break is a price break. Thanks again.

Well the higher price to Canada and the States was due to high postage costs, hopefully by reducing the price we may attract many more subscribers

The price drop is good news.

However the slow pace of Canada Post might not mean that the magazine actually arrives earlier for us subscribers in Canada. Especially if we are far from Vancouver

@busytech

Here are Canada Post's delivery standards for mailings within Canada:

LOCAL 2 business days
WITHIN A PROVINCE 3 business days
NATIONAL 4 business days

In my experience these standards pretty much match the service I have received.

Since you live in a major metro centre I don't expect you to have any problems receiving the mailings within the standard 4 business days.

PANORAMA -- now there's a blast from the past. Hands up everyone who remembers their PD series from back in the late eighties. I haven't heard (or seen) the name in years, nice to know there are still active members around. Especially ones with such good ideas to contribute.

(nitpick: Hmm, actually, wasn't it PaNorAmA?)

Best regards,

Niels

I agree with these delivery standards,

however mail from UK usually takes 4 days to arrive, which would be the same as a delivery from Vancouver.

I am pleased with the high quality of your magazine. I hope the paper and printing does not lessen. I keep these forever. I also show them off to the uneducated.

I certainly hope more people will subscribe. I am about 165 miles south of Vancouver. My copy should not take long to arrive. I would much rather read a magazine I can hold in my hands than any on screen one.

The price drop and free issue are well received here, thanks. You are doing a fine job.

I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

The proof he sent us was excellent quality, with a nice "glossy" cover

Cool, we didn't want anyone who recently (before price drop) subscribed to feel ripped off or anything so decided to add an extra free issue to ther subscription

Thanks, doing what we can with limited resources and time.

Maybe Total Amiga could offer a online subscription for even less?..By having a subscriber download and print each issue if desired...that would further save on local printing costs and mailing ...and easier on the envoirment too. Just an idea.

This has been asked so many times now, but we want to continue as a print magazine only (it's what everyone seems to want). We would no longer continue if the magazine turned into just a downloadable PDF, it is the fact we "produce" something that is liked by others that keeps us motivated.
