I purchased a 12 month subscription/12 issues from this seller back in may of 2010. I only ever got 1 issue. Actually I completely forgot about the magazines until I got the electronic renewal noticeI contacted amazon via chant and asked for a refund. I was a bit surprised that they said no problem/that I was able to get a refund from Amazon even though it was 10 months later.So this isnt a complain about amazon, its a complaint about the seller. I should have checked further, they had a bad rep on the web as a ripoff artist.My advice - dont buy magazine subscriptions from this seller but Amazon is still a good company to do business with.
