I still subscribe purely to keep up with some of the news and events in the hobby. But every time I see you-know-who smirking on the front cover I vow not to renew. |

...ran out in October, and I received a number of renewal notices, but I did not opt to renew -- however, after not receiving a few issues, I started getting them again and noticed that my new subscription end date is now October 2007. It's not a bad free rag. |

Current. Just renewed about 3 months ago for the first time in years. The acution catalogues are worth the subscription price. Otherwise, I think there was only one good article (Mastro/Nagy) that I remember reading in the last three months. |

I just keep subscribing to the magazine. I have been a subscriber since eary 70's when Stommen's owned the paper. Even though it takes only 15 - 20 minutes to read now. And you do get auction catalogs and some of the articles are informative. I always consider letting it lapse, but it is not that expensive. |

.........................ieven wrote them a letter to the editor once, Finally decided it wasn't worth either the dough or the huge accumulation of newspaper. I could find out about auctions here, and the couple of guys who sold stuff through their pages that interested me either quit or bwecame less interesting. Mainly, though, TOO MUCH PAPER! |

There was once a time I paid for a fed ex subscription because there was so much good material being offered that even a few hours would be the difference between getting something great or just missing out. Obviously, the way business is conducted today has changed dramatically and most of the advertising is either an announcement of an upcoming auction or a heartwarming ad which reads: "we are accepting consignments." Did anyone in the hobby realize that these auction houses are accepting consignments? Who isn't accepting a consignment? |

Former weekly subscriber... I've been burned by 2 of SCD's advertisers and I wrote letters complaining to SCD about it... Nothing was done, nor was I sent back a letter from SCD. When SCD offered a FREE classifieds if you re-newed years ago.. I tried to do it with a "MR. MINT" Hate club and a place where people could tell stories... SCD refused to run it and sent my money back.... LOL .... I do bye the Lemke Price guide every year.. JC |

I know SCD is a mere shadow of what it used to be - but I still enjoy it and occasionally find leads and collections in it. I know we all have time limitations- and I admit I don't read it cover to cover all of the time- like I once did. |

In the 80's I subscribed for the first class mailing - but then it was a time when there were good deals to be had and getting the issue sooner rather than later was a good thing. But that was in the 80's. I still have the regular, when it gets here - it gets here, mail service since SCD is no longer time relevent. I do like some of the articles and accompanying photos. |

I still subscribe to SCD, mainly because I'm afraid I'll miss something if I don't. Also, the show calendar is helpful, as are the ads for upcoming shows, so I can send items for autographing if possible. |

Bob, at least some of those magazines died without selling their souls to the modern glossy crap the way SCD did. |

Harry, great observation. I really can't think of a single issue of SCD that stands out in my mind during the roughly 10 years I subscribed. On the other hand, I wish I had not thrown out all my TOJ, BHN and other old hobby pubs as I can think of at least one or two issues from each that wish I still had around for reference. |

Current --I used to be able to pick up a copy at the newstand but no one seems to carry it so I went ahead and subscribed --not of the class of Old Cardboard but I like the inserts and I at least don't feel as if I might be missing something. |
