Thank you for sending out my first order. I am very pleased with the quality of your service and of the very good condition of the back issues I ordered. I have ordered from other companies and was not as pleased. I recently made 2 more orders of back issues from you and looking forward to their arrival.
Thank you again for working with me on setting up my PayPal account. It is most convenient and secure.
May I ask where I might obtain more of the plastic sleeves you use to protect the magazines?
I "Googled" "Back Issues of Playboy" earlier this week and
got a hit on
www.usedissues.com.
Figured I'd give it a shot since I've gotten more than a FEW "holes"
in my collection of Playboy magazines. The site seemed to be pretty straight
forward. I was impressed with Ron's acknowledgement that the pictures of the
magazine COVERS did NOT depict the actual condition of the magazines he had to
sell. ..."Star" number ONE.
I read the way that he grades the condition of his magazines and thought,
"Okay, that seems to be a good "conservative" way of rating the
magazines". Turns out, his " VG=Very
Good- Obviously used copies with minor flaws such as corner
creases, some light cover soiling or rubbing, a small staple tear, spine wear,
staple rust etc. Overall these are above average condition and do have
collector value ," IS conservative to a fault. "Star"
number TWO.
I emailed Ron with a few questions and was actually SURPRISED that I got a
reply within like, less than 5 hours. "Star" number THREE.
We exchanged emails quickly and I was much impressed with his openness,
apparent honesty, and OBVIOUS desire to get me to understand that he was NOT
out to rip me off. "Star" number FOUR.
I placed an order with Ron for a couple of "catch-up, hole filler"
issues and COMPLETE YEAR SETS for the years 1967, 1968, 1969, and 1972. I used
"Pay Pal" to complete the transaction. Amazingly, using "Pay
Pal" was terribly easy, too. Ron shipped the issues that I'd bought
essentially the SAME DAY by USPS "Priority Mail". They were due at
my residence this past Friday. Again, amazingly, they were HERE on
Friday. "Star" four-point-five.
MY GOD! Started opening the boxes and thought, "Wait! THESE are newsstand
issues that have NEVER BEEN READ!!!" They surely seemed to be in THAT
good of a condition. It was the beginning of, what they call in the business
trade a, "Customer DELIGHT" moment. They arrived ALL in
protective sleeves. They are almost all nearly as good as my
"babies" that I've kept in the original plastic mailers since 1999,
and I haven't even seen any staple rust on any of the centerfold pages that
I've looked at yet. "Star" number FIVE.
So, I'm here to tell you this. I've found that this site and site owner is, 1)
honest and open with ya, 2) goes out of his way regarding "customer
service", 3) has a product that is about 100% POSITIVE to satisfy even
the most discriminating collector, and 4) and delivers what he says ON TIME
and with GREAT VALUE for your money. I FULLY expect to be a repeat customer of
Ron's again and again.
Thank you for the opportunity to share my "buying experience" with
you. It really IS a delightful pleasure, and a COMFORT KNOWING YOU AIN'T GONNA
GET RIPPED OFF, buying back issues from Ron. He certainly has a "FIVE
STAR" site and customer service philosophy!

I received everything very promptly and in mint condition. might I say
that you may consider setting up a system where you the buyer can leave the
testimonials on your site. perhaps a buyer password would be needed so that
you wouldn't trolled.
