Subscriptions
Interesting, I would be worried about doing this. Is there anything to look out for in that fine print that seems to be common?
First ... I hate eBay for their anti-gun stance and extreme greed and buy as much locally as I can. The subscription thing is such a huge difference in price that I make an exception by getting magazines there.
I've been buying any of my subscriptions that I can off eBay for about 7 years now. I just counted and I'm receiving 17 different magazines right now and I haven't had any problems at all .... because I look carefully at the sellers feedback and avoid anyone with less than several hundred positive entries and with less than a 99+% positive rating.
As with anything today read the description carefully. Some sellers add on shipping and handling charges in addition to the auction amount just to suck you in with a low price. I avoid them as that tells you something about their character.
Remember, the first new issue will take 2-3 months to get to you, whether you get it from a seller of the publisher.
Examples:
Guns & Ammo subscription:

Shooting Times subscription:

Subscription prices will vary wildly and some mags aren't available at a good price sometimes so shop for the best price, Feedback and 99+% rating.
As with
any purchase on eBay you stand some chance of getting zapped. So far I've been OK.
