Re: Magazine renewals

My subscription is good until 2009 but my point is that the cost for
renewing is $17US more than the cost of a new subscription.  I don't
object to receiving multiple renewal notices but I do object to the
extra cost attached to a renewal offer.  eg. new 2yr subscription =3D
$41.97 while a renewal for the same 2yr period =3D $58.98!!
It doesn't compute???  jennellh
