Magazine City offers over 1,600 magazines at low publisher authorized prices with 24/7 customer service.  We recently had an opportunity to ask Devon from MagazineCity.com a few questions…

What inspired the creation of Magazine City?

MagazineCity is the online marketing creation of a group of magazine circulation professionals, recognized as leaders in the industry since the 1970’s.

What makes Magazine City different from other subscription services?

We believe we offer service without comparison on or off the web.  We invite readers to compare MagazineCity with any clearinghouse, agency, or publisher’s service.  Frequently at other companies, you will be offered partial service for less than a full year to make the prices look good artificially.  Magazine City’s great prices reflect the full subscription time period.  There are no misleading offers and our low prices come without any strings or obligations.  Customer service staff is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week if you have any questions or problems.

Are there any new features at Magazine City?

Yes, we now offer one invoice to cover all your magazine needs.  If you have a business, you can simplify your bookkeeping and tax reporting.

Do you have any advice for someone shopping for magazine subscriptions?

Be wary of deals that seem too good to be true. Many magazine sites offer prices that are below publisher authorizations. If you order from these sites, chances are you will never see your magazine.
