Computer Games Magazine Subscription

[Ronin_abx]

I'm going to buy 10 subscriptions to Computer Games Magazine.

[Daredevil3000]

wow...... All this over a subscription to a magazine. So far a big deal has been made and ATINUT hasn't even called.

[ATINUT]

I heard from them by email, and guess what they expect me to wait 60 days. That itself is a violation of North Dakota law, which states to the effect that 30days from the time one places an order/sends them the money they have to deliver the product. Computer Games Magazine is clearly in violation of North Dakota Law, where I live and hence forth I'm filing a comsumer fraud complaint against them.

Before you file that formal complaint, check the contract/agreement you made when you bought the subscription, they probably got that "waitin' time" issue covered there. Its standard procedure to wait up to 2 months.

I pulled this from the bottom of the subscribe page:

Please allow 6-8 weeks for processing.

Oh....and there was this:

MONEY BACK GUARANTEE: If you are ever unsatisfied with your subscription for any reason, you will get a refund for all unmailed issues.

I guess Computer Games Magazine is a North Dakota based company then? Otherwise...you are doing business on their terms, not North Dakota terms.

ATINUT, you should have told us of the written contract you agreed to which modifies the North Dakota state statutes.

Well, delving into this nonsence, it appears that this company has East Coast and West Coast offices. I could not find an address on their website... Man I have too much time on my hands...

I'm going to nail them. Under the laws of my state it is not legal for them to pull something like this.

As for you Traveler my age is none of yours or anyone else's business.

Dude, just take a pill and relax. Breath in, breath out.............
But seriously, it does take a while to get a subscription to go in to effect. That's why Computer Gaming World sends out their renewal (sp) forms 6 months in advance. They do that to make sure that you do not miss a mag. Also, remember its may the mag will say june. Maybe they mail all new subs out with the next mag. That could mean that it would or could take 6-7 weeks to receive your first mag. 1 week for them to receive the check. Say for example the most recent mag just went out. That would mean that you would have to wait another 4 weeks before the next mag goes out. Then, allow another week to receive the new one, and your looking at what, 6-7 weeks. So, what's your deal. Just sit back and relax. If you really want the current mag, then go and buy one!!!!!
