powerrabbit Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 bugger, not sure i've got it yet, local shop seems to have stopped selling these mags!!, it it still out in WH Smiths?? My nearest WH Smith, which is quite a large one, stopped selling it after the second issue but that's just one store, best to take out a subscription and never miss a copy, just renewed my sub, they send you a reminder when it's due.

Lord Ferguson Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I've only ever bought one or two issues... personally... I don't want to be rude and overly critical.. but now I've seen Model Farmer I won't be getting another one \ I suspect that WH Smiths de-listed it due to poor sales... I would think that all these magazines that they need a certain volume to maintain the shelf space they are given \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Nowadays there is a magazine for practically any subject you could think of, and then some. I guess the line has to be drawn somewhere of what titles to stock and as said, sales figures dictate what stays on the shelves and what's not. Each to their own, but there is a lot of rubbish on the shelves. One publication that has been 'tried out' by WHS is a DVD with a 'period' newspaper of events in history, one of which was 'the assasination of JFK'. These started off at £7.99 but don't seem to have been very popular as those left on the shelf are now reduced to £2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerrabbit Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Latest issue arrived today. A little boring this time with much out of date information and an article on Britains loaders that seem to be the same as it was in the old 'Farm & Site' mag just different pics. Still has some good stuff in it though but needs to be published on a more regular basis to keep up to date with stuff!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNHIR Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 What are people's thoughts on this magazine now that it has changed to bi-monthly and been redesigned? Or had most given up on it before the redesign due to Model Farmer coming to the fore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
