And just because I was curious I went to their mags4gifts web page and it is still live and offering me a 12 month subscription for $65.

1346104 2013-06-18 05:50:00 Yeah, sad day and an end of an era for PC enthusiasts in NZ.

Thanks to the staff for all those years. I would hope your skills and experience enable you to transfer those attributes to other work in an industry you love.

On another note... had I known a years sub was only $65 I might have subscribed, rather than paying a more disturbing sum for only occasional episodes from the supermarket.

Too late now to raise that issue, but I honestly thought a year of the mag would run to over $100.

1346106 2013-06-19 23:04:00 If we had all bought the magazine.....

I used to buy it years ago, but when I found this forum, there was really no need for it.

All the info you want is on the internet.

The only thing I really miss is /was the editorials.

But is a sad reflection on how the world is changing.

Small query - What happens to unused subscriptions? I recently resubscribed to the mag as a gift to my son.
Will there be refund?
Cheers all

No. You have to take the Womens Weekly sub instead. ;-)
