Anyone still not have their new PaperCrafts magazine this month?
Hi,
I know the PaperCrafts delivery issues have been debated here before, but has anyone not received the most recent one yet? I think it has Halloween on the cover? I saw it on the news stand about 2 weeks ago, but I still don't have mine. I had issues, and let my subscription expire, for this reason, a couple of years ago. Then I got a new gift subscription earlier this year. I am thinking about calling them because I know they will send a new one out if mine did get lost, but I wanted to see if anyone else is still waiting first. Thanks!

I got mine, but my friend's issue hasn't shown up yet. I got mine over a month ago! I would definitely call! She reported it online, but hasn't gotten it yet.

Just out of curiosity, where does your friend live? I wonder if it's a regional problem this time. I will have to call them then. A month ago... geez!! This issue with them has been gong on for ages.... they really need to figure it out....
I had issues with timely delivery when I had a subscription a few years ago, and finally didn't renew because of all the late, no-show issues. So, I've been picking it up every now and then with a coupon at JoAnn's (when they don't have the magazines on sale for 10% off). I've really liked what I've seen in the last several issues and had seriously thought about signing up for home delivery again - but it doesn't look like their delivery problems have been thoroughly addressed yet, so I guess I'll pass on a subscription. Hope you guys get them soon (before the next issue hits the stands!) If you don't contact them by a particular time after not receiving yours in the mail, they won't send you a replacement issue (they'll just extend your subscription) but you can't purchase one off the stands because the next issue may already be out.
Does the ones you receive in the mail have the UNITY scentiment stamp in them? I heard where UNITY was giving a free stamp in the PAPERCRAFT mags, but I thought it was just the newstand ones.

She's in SE Tx. I'm 100 miles west of her in houston.

I have not received my Sept/Oct issue, so I called and they are supposed to send me one. My friend who lives about 25 miles away received her Nov/Dec issue yesterday. I'm hoping I won't have to call again about this newest issue.
I talked to PC customer service this morning. They are re-sending my mom's issue and mine (neither of us received it).... Sept./Oct. She said the Nov./Dec. issue went out Sept. 28, and can take 1-3 weeks so we can all expect to receive it anytime from two days ago through the 19th.
I had no problem with the delivery, just tired of the content. I felt like the last one I looked at was mostly a catalog for PTI. There are many stamp companies, spread the love!

If you don't have the Halloween issue, CALL THEM. They'll resend. At this point you can't expect to get it. They even told me that.
I don't think they know what the heck they are talking about. Mine just came today. (ohio here)
Oh I here the poster about the PTI advertising. This magazine is very narrow in the styles they showcase.

Thanks for this info! I can't believe some are still waiting on their Sept/Oct issue!:(
I just tried to buy the latest issue today at Walmart, they didn't have it. I guess they don't sell that one. I was hoping to get it with the free stamp inside.
I also agree with ch's comment, above. PaperCrafts shows way too high a percentage of PTI stamps. In one issue, they had Everyday Button Bits about ten times, in some cases on facing pages, as well as the other "Button" sets. I actually made a tally of all the stamps in that issue. Before I consider buying an issue, I check it to see if there are any fresh ideas, and usually wind up coming back here to SCS where I can access more variety and, frequently, better designs.
I read somewhere that the Oct. 16 PaperCrafts mag will have a Unity stamp in it (I think they said newsstand copies so I'm not sure about subscription.....)
