Magazine robs newsagents

gg.JPGGuerrilla Guide Recording and Production has an on sale period of eight months. How ridiculous is that. Okay, it might sell out before them but I suspect not. This segment of the magazine department is not known for strong sales in most newsagencies. If a magazine publisher or distributor wants to take my shelf space for eight months they ought to pay rent. And while I am on this title – the $19.95 cover price is a problem. The risk of theft being what it is all I need is one copy stolen and the title is a waste of time. The terms for Guerrilla Guide Recording and Production – long shelf life and high cover price – are a good example of an abuse of newsagents. I’ll be returning unsold stock this month, it’s not worth the risk.
