Please understand that when you PRE-ORDER a magazine that the magazine has NOT been designed.
PRE-ORDER means BEFORE IT IS READY.
Magazines are NOT ready to ship the month you order them.
Productions process:
- The words have to be edited.
- The page has to be designed by our assistant designer.
- The page has to be approved by our lead designer.
- The page has to be approved by each artist in the magazine.
- The magazine has to be sent to print which takes up to 10 days.
- The magazine then takes 30 - 45 days to reach us upon completion of print.
- The magazine then has to be packaged when they arrive to us.
- Then finally the magazine still has to be shipped to you which takes 3-7 days depending on your location.
This is a 120+ day process from the day the magazine submissions close.
This is why we take PRE-ORDERS.
