I bought the January issue of UK 442 yesterday its a very good magazine indeed and it had 186 pages...

It cost £4.10 whereas the 'strayan edition of 442 with its meagre 98 pages costs $8.50....


I'm afarid the boys at 'strayan 442 are short changing their customers[-x

So were the air fares worth it? How much was it after it had been sent here and changed to the Aussie dollar? I'm guessing it was around $14.

Which one do you actually think has the better quality?

Ive seen the British version, and it was around 15-20.

Fozz, you sound like that croatian guy. Far Corner, or Frontliner
Or both...

Yeah but dont forget the UK edititon has to employ several proper football journalists to actually write the stories whereas the 'strayan edition of 442 has a couple of wannabe's copying and pasting most of its 'content'....

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.

he has a good point there

So let me get thsi straight...the australian mag costs $8. The british mag costs £4.10 wihch equates to atleast $10, then when you add on freight you're looking at around $15-18 a magazine depending on your news agent. 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.

i usually pay around 8-11 for the uk version.

The UK has a FourFourTwo as well? :-s :P

Yep sure is...

You didn't think the editorial at straya 442 had the brains to think up the idea of a magazine called 442 did ya??

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.

Your local newsagent sells the magazine at a loss??:-S

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.

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??

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...
