Poptronics

[Neil Morrison]

The same thing happened to me with Softside magazine. Of two or three
subscriptions, I only received some of the paid for issues. I even
went to New Hampshire and tracked them down. Not a very impressive
operation - pretty disorganised. I bought what back copies I could
while I was there.

Fulfillment has been the downfall of more than a few magazines.
