    I got that email too... but got the two volumes.
    I haven't checked my bank statement yet, but does that mean that they sent out the comics to people without charging them?
    And if they do need people to update their details, I wonder how long they have to do it before the next volumes are to be sent out.

    Also received the 2 volumes before that email. Matches what Bissett were doing too doesn't it? Sending first, charging later.

    Yeah, two volumes arrived first, then payment issue.
    No payment has happened yet. Maybe their biller has issues with non UK cards. But I ain't got any other emails either. :/

    If they charged after sending their products, it's no wonder Bissett went out of business.

    That’s the way they have always been....

    The idea is you get your issues sent with an invoice, but if you don’t want one of them you can send it back and not get charged.

    But once you sign up, who ever says know to an issue?

    As for this making them go out of business, the same mob have done it ok for over 20 years, so something recent must have changed to bring it to a end.

    Not to confuse people: My local Newsagent orders them in for me.

    So yes my Newsagent had the last two, however I doubt many newsagents would have.

    the newsagent at Macquarie shopping centre is getting them in, they also get most of the other products like this, star trek starships, the marvel and Dc figurines, the do who figurines, Delorian model car. they will also back order stuff for you, though that can take a very long time to come in.

    It's great for cherry picking issues of a line.
