Phew, copy sent to Poland is almost twice cheaper than subscription to Polish edition (called "Świat Nauki"). Partially because of the weak $ and strong PLN, but it doesn't explain all.

I just wonder - is it really subscription to PF members? I was not asked whether I am one of ;-)

Well, I ordered it. I figured I might as well give it a try for a year.

I guess the price for which we subscribed includes the offer ;).

Its cheaper than sci.am. in my country too. Thanx to euro/$ ratio, it turns out only 1.83eu per
magazine. And if you imagine that one can buy each (american edition) magazine for about
3-5eu its a really nice offer.

Thanks.

Maybe the link is invisible or something to non-PF members. :-p
 
Well, either which way - I'm glad your forum is getting recognition, I hope your work is rewarded Mr. Bernhardt.

Now to the forum -
May the conversations be lively.
 
I put in for 12 months, considering i pay over £3 for motorcycle mags the price is peanuts.
 
Done. What better way to spend $1.67 a month?
 
does this subscription comes with the 'parallel universe' distribution?
it seems to come with the $44 package
what about the PF package?

Hope the offer i sgoing to be open a while. No sense signing up until my current subscription runs out.

As far as I know there is no termination date for this deal.
 
sweet! just the excuse i needed to put up the money for a sci am subscription :)
 
Can non-American subscribe? Anyway, I was already a subscriber before you guys teamed up.

Btw, how long is this offer valid for? I'd like to take part in it but not until I move to the US in 3 months. Any ideas?

No deadline at this time.

It may say anything, as long as it is enough to follow the link, it is in fact an open offer.

And don't get me wrong - I don't say that to criticize or to question anything, intentions or whatever, I have asked just out of curiosity :smile: I have friends that are NOT members of PF and they can be interested in this offer as well.

Tell them to sign up at PF :)
 
Cool, might do it, or at least tell some friends. Now you guys just need to work on a connection with Discover magazine.
 
:smile: Oh, great! Thanks a lot! :cool:
 
I love it! Thanks so much for posting. This site was already such a lifesaver, now it's getting me discounts too. :)
 
sweet price, nice offer, but the page where we're supposed to write our visa nb. does not seem to be encrypted.
 
Either the subscription panel didn't work for me or I've just subscribed three times. Whenever I clicked the Submit button I was taken back to the main form with my ZIP (postcode I assumed) turned blank and the State still shown as a required item despite having selected International subscription and then United Kingdom from the drop-down list. Has anyone else had this problem?
