BITCOIN MAGAZINE ARRIVED!

[Matthew N. Wright]

The magazine should be wrapped in plastic. It arrived dirty on the back.

Your magazine didn't come in an envelope? That's highly bizarre. We've had problems with our original printers/shippers but I don't know how they sent a magazine to you without an envelope. That's just downright unacceptable.

It did come inside an envelope, but the back cover (the one with bitinstant ad), which is white, arrived dirty with black marks everywhere.
It seems it was rubbed somewhere before it was packaged. That's why I said it should be wrapper in plastic before doing anything with it.
Normally I receive magazines wrapped in plastic inside an envelop.

Sorry for the confusion.

That is indeed bizarre. Please send your complaint to info@bitcoinmagazine.co.uk

Our customer service is usually quite quick in both responding and fixing issues for customers. You're lucky I just happened to be reading this thread or I never would have known! Thanks for helping us do a better job though!

Still waiting for my pre-order... I'm not even getting replies to emails sent to info@bitcoinmagazine.co.uk

Casascius coins arrived already and I ordered them 2 weeks ago

Maybe the Spanish police are blocking it. If info@bitcoinmagazine.co.uk isn't working (which it is, for everyone else apparently), try info@bitcoinmagazine.net. Also make sure you're not using some scummy Tor anonymous email that gets marked as spam instantly by every mail provider.

Could be but they never got into my mail  
Sending all my emails from paraipanakos (at) gmail dot com. I'm starting to get depressed on this issue already, and today is supposed to be my birthday...

Happy 17th birthday

Happy 17th birthday

Thanks, but it's actually my 14th

Well it's about goddamn time...



They even folded it in half so it would stand up for the picture. That was thoughtful of them.

Look forward to reading it finally!

Matthew,

I received my copy of Bitcoin Magazine issue #1 yesterday!

Unfortunately, I ordered 2 copies (that is, I placed one order for 2 copies).

Any chance that you ship multiple-copy orders separately and on different days?  If not, I'd like my 2nd copy please

I'd just like to add, that I have had now too had the pleasure of reading the magazine, and I must say that it was a pleasant experience.

The missing proof reading, typos and some layout errors didn't ruin the overall impression of a thoroughly enjoyable magazine.

So good on you for making it work, although I still think my previous ramblings about you failing to deliver on time remain valid, and it remains to be seen that the magazine can come out on anything resembling a regular basis, and on time...

Looking forward to the next issue, and I might even subscribe myself!!!

I hear ya Dansker.  I haven't read many newspapers/magazines, but following my read of Bitcoin Magazine, I started checking out other Magazines to see how it compares and I was surprised that EVERY magazine whether it's Time Magazine, the Wallstreet Journal or National Geographic has typos and errors.

So it put my mind at rest about a few extra letters here or there.

Great Magazine!   Looking forward to issue #2!!!

I'm in Rome right now, and I'm thinking about asking the magazine vendors when they will be carrying Bitcoin Magazine

Out of interest, how are the sales of the magazine going?

[kjlimo]

So I approached a few magazine vendors in Roma (Rome) today.  After finding one where a guy in his 20s spoke English, we got to talking about Bitcoin.

I was happy that he had heard of this "internet money."  However, when I tried to get him to sell Bitcoin Magazines, he said "No one is asking me for them."  I thought this was a fair response.   You gotta sell what the people want.  In fact, I get this same response when I try to get merchants to accept bitcoins.  They say "no one is asking if I accept bitcoin."

However, when I asked him if he wanted to purchase a copy of the magazine off of my right there, he said "I'll just read about it on the internet."  This guy clearly was working with another person who I'll assume is his father, but I thought that it was ironic given that he works at a Magazine stand...

I guess drug dealers shouldn't use their product, but I thought Magazines might be a different breed...

Anywho, to everyone who wants bitcoin accepted, ask "Do you accept bitcoin?" next time you go to pay for something where you would want to use bitcoin.

Anyone who wants Bitcoin Magazine sold everywhere throughout the world, ask "Do you sell Bitcoin Magazine?" next time you are in an establishment selling magazines and you're up for buying a magazine.

Either way, I'm glad I gave it a good shot while on my tour of Europe.  I really hope that next time I'm here, I can pay with bitcoins for more stuff to avoid all these stupid transaction fees I'm going back home to... b/c of my VISA card.

I haven't exhaustively searched, but has there been any news on issue number two?
