alan barton Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 Delighted to report that #209 has arrived in Perth Western Australia yesterday, which I am going to guess is the longest distance any of the magazines travel (or very near to!) Great job guys, enjoyed reading and will be re-reading it tonight. So if the first USA copy reported here was on August 27, then my copy took 39 days extra which is considerably better than the last issue. Woohoo! Cheers Alan
TonyK Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 Thought the article on the 1/12th scale Meng GT40 might be limited to just a few modelers as I can't imagine there are many of us that are going to buy it but I do enjoy reading about all models except...... The latest Fine Scale Modeler has an entire page reviewing the Cup of Noodles model. What the?! Hopefully it's ok to mention another magazine as it doesn't even come close to my enjoyment of Model Cars Magazine.
Modelbuilder Mark Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 Mine has still not arrived. My sub is good, best I can figure, the postman decided he needed it more than me. LOL

Would have been more suitable for the April issue. LOL
Phildaupho Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 Just arrived in Victoria BC Canada - October 6
charger74 Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Got my first issue of my subscription, thank you for a great magazine

Starting this summer USPS got very strict on addresses with periodicals. The company that prints our magazine sent me a list of addresses the USPS said were not good. Biggest headaches were addresses that would be "hwy 77" Needed to be State Hwy 77 or WI-77 or Cty Rd 77. Real pain for us to deal with. Spelling is also a huge deal.

I got the previous issues no problem, not sure what is up.

We never had a problem before either. Many of the addresses worked for years and still do with first class.

Maybe they are machine reading the labels for bulk mails and the system can’t cope, but First Class is still sorted by real people at a critical point… best, M.
Modelbuilder Mark Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 The thing, my address is literally like three years old, as this is a new division. I would hope they had the address correct. I will check with Gregg to make sure.

Three quarters of the way through October and issue 209 still hasn't shown up here. I blame the post office but 2 months is getting rather ridiculous. Hopefully it shows up soon.
iamsuperdan Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 Postal service for magazines seems very slow everywhere. My copy of 209 arrived on October 5. I have three other subscriptions that always arrive at least a month after I see them on the newstands.
michaelbaskett Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 Issue #209 finally showed up in the mail yesterday.... Now the wait is on for #210...

doorsovdoon Posted November 4, 2021 Posted November 4, 2021 Forgot to mention, I received my mag a few weeks ago. Got to the UK just fine.
peter31a Posted November 9, 2021 Posted November 9, 2021 Still waiting for 209. I sent an inquiry through the magazine website for subscription questions just to make sure I'm still good and it was the post office gone awry. Waiting to hear back as to my subscription status.
