Hopefully, this post may still generate interest in Past Perfect in the future.

Following on from Steve's comment, most of my readers are ardent paper fans; a while back Past Perfect had to go "virtual" for all manner of reasons that no longer apply and I lost a few readers as a result and didn't pick up any new ones! I still offer a virtual service to those who want it (overseas readers who can't afford the postage) but even there I get very little interest, despite selling to places as far afield as Japan, Italy, Greece, and Australia. Glad to know I'm not the only old fogey still living on the planet! Thanks again and, as we say at PP, Power to the People.Paul Warenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-204704433802829222019-07-15T09:33:20.386+01:002019-07-15T09:33:20.386+01:00I'm told it was due to the pound being suddenl...I'm told it was due to the pound being suddenly worth less against the dollar (because of Brexit), HS, but I'm sure a few places exploited the situation to their own ends. It's interesting that prices always go up under such circumstances, but they never go down when/if the pound recovers.<br /><br />Paul mentioned that he'd had some feedback as a result of this post, so hopefully a few people responded. However, even if you were the only one, that's still a result worth having. Let me know what you think of Past Perfect once you've read it.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-56646399822735060942019-07-15T08:18:32.327+01:002019-07-15T08:18:32.327+01:00Hullo Kid...I noticed that there are still no resp...Hullo Kid...I noticed that there are still no responses to this particular post, so I thought I'd let you know that I've been in touch with Paul and have ordered a bunch of his recent issues. Going only by your write-up, and sight unseen, this sounds right up my street. As much as I enjoy reading your articles and others on this computer-thingy at work, I really miss the days of finding the new physical copy of Fantasy Advertiser or suchlike on the shelves in the comic shops of the '80's. This sounds like it could be a good modern-day equivalent. I did buy some US mags for a while, Back Issue and Alter Ego are both excellent, but when Forbidden Planet suddenly hiked the price by £2 between issues (the $ price hadn't increased), I gave up on them. After getting zero explanations from 2 staff in the shop, I wrote to their head office and was told it was all because of Brexit. What a load of cobblers!Hackney Stevenoreply@blogger.com
