Video Game Trader SPECIAL OFFER FOR DIGITAL PRESS MEMBERS ONLY!!

[videogametrader]

Hello Everyone,

Video Game Trader Magazine & Price Guide celebrated its 1 year anniversary in January. This May, we celebrate 1 year in Print form!

Digital Press was one of the first forums that I used to promote the magazine and I have made some good friends as a result of that. I am very grateful to everyone that has supported (and even those that criticized) us.

As a thank-you, I am offering a $9.99 yearly subscription to Video Game Trader. This is a special offer good for the first 100 new subscribers. Not only will you get a 1 year subscription to the magazine, but that special $9.99 rate is locked in for as long as you are a subscriber. That's a 50% lifetime discount!

We have created a special landing page for subscriptions of this type at http://www.videogametrader.com/subscribe_digitpress.htm

Our next issue is due out in March (#11). Issue #10 (January) has already sold out! And our May issue will have something special for all of you Star Trek fans!

As always, questions and comments are welcome.

With sincere thanks and appreciation,

The Video Game Trader Staff

The Fine Print: Offer valid for US and Canadian customers only. Digital Press has not endorsed nor is affiliated with Video Game Trader

[MachineGex]

I just signed up, thanks for the great deal!

[jcalder8]

Great deal, I signed up.

[Coldguy]

Dude those game battles kick ass, for that alone it is worth the price of admission.

[Drag0nsfyre]

I signed up as well. :) thanks for the great offer! :D :cool:

[Vectorman0]

I encourage everyone looking for a good Video Game magazine to subscribe. Anyone who tried Video Game Collector, but was consistently let down by them should try this instead. I was, and Video Game Trader offers infinitely better service. 6 issues for $10 a year - a must buy.

VGT - I'm a current subscriber, is there any way to get myself put down for this special DP rate for future renewals? :-D

[Slash]

Thanks! I signed up! :)

[demen999]

Hmm i'm going to look into this, sounds awesome.

[Canuck]

Looks good, just signed up :D

[Animaniac]

Man, I'd love to but I'm short on cash and it doesn't appear you deliver to P.O. boxes. :bawling:

[videogametrader]

PO Boxes are fine. Go for it!

[Animaniac]

PO Boxes are fine. Go for it!

How long is the offer going to be around though? Have to put money in paypal first and it takes a few days.

I just realized I did not put in the post when the offer would end! My bad.. The offer is good until Friday Midnight.

Thanks!!

Hmmm...Friday is the day I get paid I believed. I'll get it in sometime Friday afternoon then.

[ryborg]

Phenomenal offer, definitely in for one. Thanks for a good deal.... I can't wait.

[gum_drops]

Not a bad deal, I will bite.

[videogametrader]

Hi Everyone,

If you don't mind, please reply to the post if you are going to sign up. It will help keep this deal on the front page of the forums for the most exposure.

Thanks!

[carlcarlson]

Well I tried to sign up but it's asking me to add a card so you can verify my address. I already have my card linked to Paypal, though, so it won't let me do it again. I didn't see a way around it either. Any ideas?

Sounds like a paypal issue. I have not had any problems as of yet. Please try again. If you are having trouble I can send you a paypal invoice.

Yeah it's messed up. PM sent.

[The 1 2 P]

I would love to do this. But I'm not sure if any of my issues would arrive. Considering you sent me two of your free issues that I never got, I may not receive these issues either. But I agree that $10 for a yearly subscription is a great offer(I should know because I have four current game magazine subscriptions).

[JT80]

Looking forward to my first issue.

[kevates]

I just signed up. Thanks for the deal.

[sisko]

$1.67 an issue? Hard to beat that.

In for 1, thanks for the offer!

[Sosage]

Subscribed. Thanks! =)

I really don't know what to say. I sent out over 30 of the free issues and you appear to be the only one I am having issues with. I am not sure what the problem is, but I am willing to try one more time. :) Otherwise, you need to move! :)

[carlcarlson]

I'm in! I look forward to checking out your mag.

It's definitely not your fault. I mean, living in hell means I rarely get my mail. Satan is always taken it to fornicate with or something similarly weird. If it ever gets sold in stores I'll most likely pick it up though. Also, maybe I should move. I hate hot weather......year round.

[slapdash]

Subscribed. And thanks for the free issue a while back (forgot to say earlier).

[ghsqb]

Subscribed. At that price you really can't go wrong. Thanks for the offer.

[backguard]

In for one - thanks!

[dstone]

WTF, it just signed me up for a PayPal account.

Oh, well, money sent. Looking forward to getting my first issue. :cheers:

[duo_r]

hey I never knew about this magazine. Is there any sample pages so I can see what the content is like?

[Icarus Moonsight]

That free issue offer along with this lifetime sub rate... How can I pass on that? Looking forward to my first issue as a subscriber, thanks. :)

[YoshiM]

If you go to the Video Game Trader Website (http://www.videogametrader.com), you can hover your mouse over "The Magazine" and then click on "Read It Online". You'll get a listing of what issues are available. Issues 6 and 7 are currently available to read online for free.

[darkslime]

Like The 1 2 P, I also never received the free issue.
I know it's not your fault though.
Will probably subscribe when I get another paypal payment.
Thanks!

[Fanboy]

Sub'd. Thanks for the fantastic offer!

[duo_r]

which issue had the TurboGrafx-16 cover? What did I miss? Do you also cover TG-16 games?

[mnbren05]

In like flint, thanks for the great deal! I look forward to reading your publication.

[Animaniac]

Just paid for mine. Decided to get it sent back home after all. Much easier that way.

Visit VideoGameTrader.com and you can view back-issues.

Thanks,

[videogametrader]

Just wanted to let everyone know that the $9.99 special has expired. Thanks for everyone that subscribed. If you missed it, I am sorry.

As a consolation to the late comers, I have created a perminent page with a $14.99 subscription price.

http://www.videogametrader.com/subscribe_digitpress.htm

Thanks again and enjoy,

Tom

[Drag0nsfyre]

Received my first issue today! Great little 'zine :D looking forward to my remaining subscription issues.:)
Thanks again for the great deal! :cool:

[MachineGex]

Just wanted to say how happy I am that my first issue arrived today. I am digging it. It will be very handy to carry around. After I re-read it, it will go directly in my car.

I enjoyed this issue and I'm definately looking forward to getting the rest. Thanks for the great deal and for shipping the magazine out on time. ;)

I will be checking out all the advertiser's websites to see if they can help me find a few games.

Thanks again and congrats on a nice magazine! Well done!!!

[Canuck]

Mine just arrived, looks like a good read. Keep up the excellent work.

*subbing now*

[mnbren05]

Anyone else get their magazine yet? I see 2 posts but I have not yet gotten mine.

[Icarus Moonsight]

Still waiting for mine to start up also. Good thing is the later the sub starts the later it ends.

I got an email a little while back that said they ran out of the current issue, so they are starting my sub on the next one. Perhaps you're in the same boat?

I got this email



Hello,

You are receiving this message because you recently subscribed to Video Game Trader. Welcome!

This email is to inform you that your subscription will begin with issue #12. This issue is due to ship in May 2009.

You may be wondering why your subscriptions is starting with issue #12, instead of #11. Please keep in mind that Video Game Trader is a bi-monthly publication. Therefore, it can take, up to, three months for a subscription to begin. When you signed up, issue #11 was already sold out and it was too late to contact our printer to request more copies.

I hope you enjoy the magazine. In the meantime, please visit www.VideoGameTrader.com. We are in the process of redesigning the site to provide more valueable classic gaming goodness for everyone!

Sincerely,

Thomas Sansone
Owner, Isadoo Publishing

Keeping classic video games... alive!



I subscribed to another video game guide similar to this and get the same feeling, I never got ones I paid for, they were "delayed" and never ended up showing up. My "year" subscription dragged on for almost 2.

Not saying this is the same case, but its the same start

[mnbren05]

I hope it comes soon I was really looking forward to it. I'll drop a pm to op since I did not recieve an email or anything.

[slapdash]

For what it's worth, I got my first issue in my subscription.

[videogametrader]

Anyone else get their magazine yet? I see 2 posts but I have not yet gotten mine.

Please PM me if you have not gotten your magazine. Because the offer was posted AFTER the latest issue went to print, I had to make the first issue for some of you be the May issue. I apologize but did not anticipate the response. I will try not to make that mistake again.

I assure you that your previous experience will NOT be repeated. I just did not order enough to cover the new digital press subscribers. Again, i do apologize. But you WILL get your May issue. As a matter of fact, my credit card was just charged today for the printing.

[Icarus Moonsight]

Cool beans. May it is then. :)

[BlackandBlue]

Subscribed. Thanks for the great offer.

[mnbren05]

Well I look forward to reading it if it shows up.

[oldheadbanger]

I want to sign up, but when I go to it using the link you provided, it defaults to "eCheck". I wish to pay instantly, not eCheck, and already have the funds in my Paypal account. There is an option to switch source of funds, but it doesn't seem to have any instant option, just credit card.

Should I email you and perhaps you can send me an invoice that I can pay instantly...thanks!

btw, awesome magazine, my favorite!: -D

Bought one issue awhile ago to try it, and really enjoyed all the articles, especially the one on all the rare game systems. And the price guide is very helpful. I specialize in Game Boy games and have been buying and selling online for years, so I was checking out these prices to compare.

[mnbren05]

Still waiting

[JT80]

The price guide in it is awesome and I can easily take it with me to my local game store since its small.

Overall a fantastic magazine.

[ghsqb]

I just got my issue #12 yesterday.
Awesome magazine.

Had a really bad experience with the VGC crew, but the customer service with Video Game Trader is very good.
They are accessible, they respond, and they deliver a great product.

Very please with my first issue!

Thanks for the kind words. I am glad you like it. My goal is to avoid some of the issues past Video Game magazines have had. By your response, it looks like we are doing a good job.

Thanks again.

[tmlfan]

So far I have not received the mag, i did exchange a few emails about the issue today and I have to say the communication was quick and I feel a lot better about my order and future orders. With a previous magazine I sent several emails without any responses. I look forward to getting it.

[Icarus Moonsight]

I was promised a mag by May and I got it. No sweat. :)

[MachineGex]

Just wondering when the next issue is out and how to check and see if my subscription is up to date? I love this magazine and want and make sure I keep my subscription up to date.

I need to update my address if you are still publishing this mag. I have not seen an issue in about a year, so I am guessing this mag died the same way Video Game Collector did...
very sad, I loved both mags.

Hi, you can send address corrections to vgtradernj@gmail.com. We have been in a reorganizing mode. But the next issue should be out soon.

Thanks,

[MachineGex]

Address correction sent. Heres to hoping you guys get back on track!

[YoshiM]

Wow, you're not kidding about reorganizing. Haven't visited your site in a while and dang-VGT is not only a magazine but an online game store!

Yes, well the magazine isn't profitable on its own. So I need a way to make money. The store will generate money to pay for the magazine.

[MachineGex]

Any news on how the next issue is doing?

[BenG76]

PM sent to see if I still have a subscription. Its been so long since the last issue I cant remember.

[videogametrader]

The next issue has been mailed to all subscribers. If you are a subscriber and don't receive your issue within the next week, please PM me.
