Magazine part-works etc....

[blue virgin]

Why is it that a lot of magazine part-works (you know the sort of thing. "Part 1 only 1.99 and includes a free whatever") say on the T.V adverts that they are not available in Tyne Tees in little letters at the bottom? Do the people there not read? Or maybe they just don't buy part-works (Too cheap/Too smart).......

No idea why there not available in Tyne Tees unless the Tyne Tees council have found out what a rip off they are and banned them.

By the time you have got the last bit a few years after you started you have paid about �700 for something you could buy for under �200!

I believe that it's because that part- work magazine will have been trialled in the Tyne Tees region previously so the "part one available now" and "brand new" doesn't apply in that area as they'll already be on highere numbered edition of the magazine.

Part-work magazines are always trialled first in one or two television areas before being releasied in the other regions.

When they do then release them ito the rest of the country, they have to put those little disclaimers in the commercials.
