Why doesn't Squadron sell FSM magazine?
Posted by djrost_2000 on Wednesday, January 14, 2009 4:27 PM

I've been using Squadron for quite some time, but I've noticed that they sell Kalmbach books but not FSM magazine, while they sell quite a number of other modeling magazines.  Does anyone know why they don't?

I may be wrong...It may be due to a policy that Kalmbach doesn't sell to internet based retailers directly...those that do stock them purchase theirs through an intermediate source so they can sell them through their sites. I know Sprue Brothers carries FSM.

We have it available at Sprue Brothers Models (www.spruebrothers.com) if you are still looking for an online source to purchase individual issues.

Thanks guys, I've actually been subscribing steadily for quite a few years, I was just curious why Squadron offers other modeling mags but not FSM.

Thanks for the replies,

Dave

I had subscribed for a decade or so, but within the last couple of years, there may be one or two articles within a three issue span that actually garner my interest. If I see an issue on the newsstand or hobby shop and there is an article or two that appeal to me, I will buy it, but I no longer want to pay money for an annual subscription without first knowing that the magazine will be worth it to me.
