Public Service Announcement - Wizzmag / Rods & Customs In Scale magazine



This blog isn't really about this kind of thing as such, but it's been pissing me off so much lately thatI thought I'd try and save anyone else falling for what I did.

Sometime last year, I found the 'Wizzard Publications' website, and like any good auto modeler, got excited about one of their publications, Rods & Customs In Scale. Paid up for a two year subscription immediately, stupidly.

Guess what? No mag, ever. That site hasn't changed or updated in the last year, no magazine as come out, the guy running the scam is ignoring people's requests for a refund (including mine) and has even had the balls to 'renew' some unfortunate subscribers for another year - without delivering a single issue.

Feel entirely free to shit in a Jiffy bag and send it to the guy...but don't put any postage on there, this address and phone number is likely a dud anyway:



Something more positive tomorrow, but just wanted to put the word out

Go by www.MagCloud.com they have several good model car magazines (Model Car Builder, Kustom Rod & Models, Lowriders in Scale), and they are "Print-on-demand" magazines which means they don't print it until you order it! The only draw back is that they don't offer discount subscriptions.
