So Fozz, you never told us how much you actually paid for the english version of the mag. £4.10...you just happened to have a £10 note in your pocket and paid the £4.10 like the mag said, or did your Newsagent charge you the extortionate $14 for the mag like my local one does?? Quote:thats what i thought, but i asked the guy and he was saying he is actually making a good profit on it, maybe its just we get things cheaper in queensland. Do you get a different exchange rate in england aswell?? because £4.10 is around $9.30, and then you have to allow for freight...

And you're complaining because you get the same articles for less???#-o
If you don't like the mag, why do you buy it?? And then why do you come on here to whinge about it?? Don't you have anythign better to do? Get a job, or go fly a kite or something.
12,000 posts my word you must spend a hell of a lot of time on ére Afroman:-" :-" :-" :oops: :oops: :lol: It's actually good when there aren't fuck-muppets having a whinge. And as I've said countless times, I'd rather be on here than watching television. I'm not sure if that's a statement about how much I like football or how pathetic Australian television is.

I dont think youre in a position to be labelling other people wannabes. If youre so anti-FFTAU then maybe you should stop making them rich by logging on to their site and buying their magazine.
