You should be able to reserve your copies from any WH Smith, regardless of size. We currently ship an average of 7,000 copies of each issue to the UK for sale on the newsstands.
Let us know if you have any further problems.

Well, difficult to say, but I get mine from Maidstone's WH Smith. I suppose all branches are able to offer this service!

Does this apply in any branch or just the larger stores. I don`t reall want to be going out of town to pick up the magazine.

For £2 you can 'reserve' your copies of FSM from WH Smith. Each month they put it into a filling cabinet under your name, and you just have to collect it. The £2 covers admin fee I suppose, but you only pay that fee once.

How can I get this mag in the UK? I can`t find it in any local model shops or even large newsagents. Today I tried in WH Smith in the Trafford centre (the most well stocked newsagent in the area) and the few copies that they had were sold out. They have an on-line section, but FSM is not included.
How many copies are shipped to the UK for general distribution? I will take out a subscription if it will guarantee a mag each month, but due to shipping logistics will we in the UK be weeks behind the rest of the readership.
Advice from UK readers or FSM staff most welcome.
