More titles than the book stores around here. Oh I gotcha.Im on Long Island NY,so we don’t have that store.We have Stop and Shop,and they have a pretty small selection of auto mags.

In order to be notified when a new issue is available, you need to 'follow' the magazine on Magcloud, or join the Kustom and Hot Rod Magazine Facebook group. All back issues are available. The only ads are on the back cover. It is full color on thick pages, not white pages with color photos. I have received nothing but positive feedback from readers.

Same thing at my local Barnes and Noble. They even dropped the Rodder's Journal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I have noticed many of the Automotive magazines are hard to find in the usual places. I'm under the impression that there is a distribution step between the publishers and the retailers and I wonder if the availability problems my be at that level ?

Maybe the fact that we didn't buy them is part of the problem? The two BnN around here have maybe 30% of the magazines over all that they did before Covid.

No I read them,but I mostly bought them.Magazines are gonna be a thing of the past,and that sucks!!!!But like I said before,they make room for a million diet and gossip mags.Whatever.?

That is when you learn not to ever grab the front issue from the stack. You reach in and grab one of the pristine copies in the middle of the stack.

Brian Austin Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I haven't been in a B&N for a very long time now, but I recall being rather disappointed in the selection of automotive books at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
