Thank you to everyone who replied to my question about magazine jobbers. I was asked to post a hit, so here it is. Original Question I am wondering if anyone can recommend a magazine jobber. The jobber our district is currently has been passing along price increases to magazines subscriptions during the year. We would like to find a jobber that charges a flat rate for the year's subscriptions without additional charges. Vendors Magazine Subscription Services, Inc. 456 West Boylston Street P.O.

Magazine Subscription Services, Inc. 456 West Boylston Street P.O. Box 60300 Worcester, MA 01606 Discount Magazines I use Discount Magazines and have been doing so for several years. They have been quick to correct errors, and there have been almost none, and once we pay the invoice for the year, that's it until the next year. They send renewal forms in the spring showing the magazines to which you currently subscribe with a total for the next year, assuming you wish to renew all. Excellent email service.

PO Box 60114 Fort Myers, FL 33906 Phone: (239) 274-6868 Fax: (239) 225-1557 discountmagazine@yahoo.com <mailto:discountmagazine@yahoo.com> I have been extremely pleased with Discount Magazine Subscription Service. They promptly take care of any requests I've had etc... There number is 239 274 6868 or 1 800 999 5070 I have had a lot of luck with Discount Magazines. They are always much cheaper than any other quote i receive from other jobbers. The contacts name is Jason and the email is discountmagazine@yahoo.com <mailto:discountmagazine@yahoo.com> . For years, I successfully ordered and save a lot of money from Discount Magazine Service and Subscription Services of America. Much less cost than Demco or EBSCO, etc. PMA I have been pleased with PMA, but last week I asked them to fax me my list and they haven't. I called again today and hopefully they will. I just thought I would do a little comparison shopping while it was on my mind. I have heard that WT Cox is another. I'm going to see which one I save the most money with. (Was that last sentence grammatically correct??) I wanted to follow up.... I got a quote from both WT Cox and PMA (my original company). PMA beat Cox by at least $100. Thought I would share! W. T. Cox We have used PMA in the past (1-866-937-6247) but I am searching around also. US Subscription Media We use US Subscription Media and work with David Honda. I find him to be very good to work with. His number is (818)998-3335. PTP Subscriptions Our district vendor is PTP Subscriptions in Austin, TX. Subscription Services of America Try Subscription Services of America http://www.subscriptionservicesofamerica.com/ <https://outlook.west-bend.k12.wi.us/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.subscriptionservicesofamerica.com/> We use subscription services of America SSA http://subscriptionservicesofamerica.com/ <https://outlook.west-bend.k12.wi.us/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://subscriptionservicesofamerica.com/> they seem pretty competitive Amazon I don't use a "jobber" so to speak, but do use amazon.com--primarily because their cost is so reasonable vs a jobber's! We ordered through Amazon this year and it was VERY cheap and has worked great! No Jobber I don't use a magazine jobber, because I can get better prices by ordering directly. I've had instances where I've ordered a 3-year subscription (at a nice discount) and then had the cover price increase twice during that term. The magazine didn't ask for more money. They agreed to deliver the magazine for three years for a certain price, and that's what they had to do. W.T. Cox I have excellent luck with W.T. Cox WE use W.T. Cox and have been very happy with them. Popular Subscription Service I have been using Popular Subscription Service. They charge a flat fee with no increases during the subscription period.
