Amazon: 1 year subs to gaming mags for $5

I only got OPM and OXM but didn't get NP and I should have. Say what you will but nothing beats rolling one up in your back pocket and heading to the shitter.

When this sale first went live, i bought ps, ninty, xbox and pc. I received 2 psm and nintendo, 1 pc gamer, and 0 xbox. What the fuck is up with the xbox subscription?

I send them an email too. No word from them, yet.

=(
 
When I check my stuff under my account at Amazon I get this:

First Issue Delivery Estimate:
July 13, 2010 - August 10, 2010


So I have to wait two days before filing a question.

Pretty much. I was supposed to get my first issue yesterday, which did not come.
 
I got one issue each of the two magazines I subscribed to (PC Gamer and Nintendo Power) pretty quickly, but then I moved, and though I did change the addresses through Amazon I haven't gotten second issues of either yet... hmm, I wonder when I should complain...

One NP (the Dragon Quest cover) no OXM here. Plus i think ill end up getting 11 and not 12 issues of NP which is ridicolous

I clicked the link and I am not seeing a Nintendo Power 1-year subscription for $5. Am I stupid?

Deal ended months ago, check the post dates.

Anyway this is probably relevant to everyone who ordered a magazine sub on Amazon, I got an email the other day with a code for $5 off anything on Amazon for having a magazine subscription with them, so check your emails.

No OXM here either. I'd forgotten I'd ordered it to be honest. But now that I know I don't have it yet, I burn with incandescent rage!

Not really

I wonder if they are scamming us. I got like 2 issues of NP, OPM, and 1 of Pc Gamer. No OXM.

Eh, probably not. If I ordered it though anyone other than Amazon, I'd be suspicious. Like the others though, my order states that my first issue is due 8/16. I'll contact support next week and see what they have to say.

Still haven't got my OXM but if you look at the order @ Amazon it should tell you when it's expected to arrive. Mine says August 17th (this tues) so I still have hope.

No OXM for me. I just went to the customer service section on OXM's website, and they said they had no record of any subscription made under my email address.

Same here. Check with your street address, not your email address guys. Mine also says Sept. 1st. I still did a complaint through Amazon though, because they claim that I should've gotten my first issue by now, so we'll see.
 
WOW at the shitty OXM service. I've already gotten TWO issues of Official Playstation Magazine and Nintendo Power (I had an existing sub to NP though).

Plus, I've also received three issues of a health mag (obviously not part of this deal, but still done through Amazon around the same time) and several issues of EW (ditto).

So for anyone else who reported the problem with OXM, did you also get an extension on your subscription?
