Abbaddabba 0 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 10 Issues for $19.951 Year U.S. (26 Issues) for $39.952 Year U.S. (52 Issues) for $74.951 Year Canada (26 Issues) for $79.951 Year International (26 Issues) for $99.95Why is it twice as much in canadian as it is in american? Shipping costs and exchange rates dont come even close to that much...But even MORE suspect is the gift subscription offer.... 1 year / 26 issue US Subscription - $29.95 2 years / 52 issues US Subscription - $54.95 1 year Canadian - $89.95 1 year International - $99.95 They charge LESS if you're giving it as a gift to americans, but MORE if you're giving it as a gift to a Canadian?Why the hell should i have to pay two to three times as much for a magazine subscription when i live in a major city a mere hour from the border, meaning shipping costs are a non-factor.Is there any way around those absurd prices?

spicynuts 0 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 i play at absolute, and i know that one of the gifts they offer for accumulating points is a free year of cardplayer magazine. THey also have bluff magazine and something else for less points. If you're interested, tons of sites offer rakeback for absolute so you should check that out as well. If you need some extra help, you can PM me but it shoudl be easy enough. Link to post Share on other sites
