Any big mailing like this has to be sorted by zip, and go through postal acceptance first.

Lower does not necessarily mean faster with bulk mail.

I've had mine since the beginning of last week, and I'm in 891**

FINALLY got mine too, yesterday. Great content, very professional presentation. Bit too short, but hey, it's quality, not quantity, right?

I might suggest you put a 1/2 page add in it for the RX8Club.com and RX7Club.com though. The competitor did this for their board...

Big announcement Ryan? Sweet! :D

If it is Mazdasport that you refer to as the competitor ...well then we do not have a forum.
We have a website only.
www.mazdaevents.com
There was an ad placed in the magazine for the RX8.com site. It is not our site. We were offered s topic line on this site as well (I believe all vendors were offered this).

Mazdasport is not about competing with anyone. ... it has taken a lot of work for us in these last 15 years to build a magazine and survive that's for sure.

Let's hope that now there are two magazines for Mazdas that they both do well.

Since PM's arent getting me a response about this, lets see if reviving an old thread will. I have been charged for the magazine subscription AGAIN. This is teh second time and so far I have seen 1 rather anemic issue and NONE OTHER. If nobody bothers to reply to my PM or emails I am going to have to dispute the charge with my CC and that will cause you guys a lot of trouble from what I understand. I was unhappy with the first magazine issue and I am now pissed off at being charged for it again and after 3 weeks of PM's and emails to fix it I get no respose. It's June 13. You have 1 more week to fix your mistake before I dispute the charge.

Well, not to hijack your attempt to seek restitution, but along the same lines ... I too have had no response from Ryan (BOOSTD 7) Scott regarding inquiries about advertising on the site. Interestingly enough, I have heard from acquaintances that the RX Tuner Magazine is not doing well, that Ryan is a poor communicator (definitely exidence of that), and the magazine employees are not getting paid and some have left. I don't know if it is true or not, however, I do know when common business courtesy is absent ... and it is definitely absent here.

Perhaps Mr. Scott should consider a couple of short courses in Customer Relationship Management and Communication. Clearly his focus is aimed elsewhere.

The only thing worse than a gatekeeper is a gatekeeper that's never at the gate. Think I'll spend my paultry advertising dollars somewhere else...and buy a subscription to MAZDASPORT.

Are you guys sending emails to support@rxtuner.com and advertising@rxtuner.com? I requested a change in my mailing address a few weeks ago, and got an almost instant response. And no, it's not because I'm a mod, they don't have any way of knowing who I am in rl. They are also extremely busy working on the next issue right now.

Derwankel, I'm not sure what you hope to gain by being insulting, but it only reflects on you, not BOOSTD 7 or the forum, when you post rudeness.

I've sent multiple emails to all the rxtuner addy's that got posted here when the mag was first being promoed, as well as sending to the email account that notified me of payment the first time. This was almost 2 weeks ago and nothing. PM on the board as well has never even been viewed.

Genom - what's your real name? I'll make sure we didn't miss your inquiry.

Oh geez ... Ben has obviously been mouthing off to you hasn't he. The mag is doing fantastic, why else would I have quit my $75K/year job to do this full-time? Slow response has been due in past to Brian being the only full-timer, now there are two of us. And nobody has 'left' the magazine. The ones who were are part and are no longer, were asked to leave. Other things are not to be discussed in public ...

MazdaSport is a fine publication too, anyone who wants more than just rotary coverage should subscribe. But people who only want rotary coverage won't find much there.
