Quarterly subscription of £22.30 gets you a bag worth £60.

Nothing in the terms and conditions requires you to sign up to the full year.


We ask that you enter into a Direct Debit agreement with the intention that your subscription will continue for a minimum period of 12 months, even if the frequency of payment is for a shorter period (for example, quarterly). Once a Direct Debit Agreement is completed and accepted, it remains active until cancelled. This means that we will continue to take the payment due until the Agreement is cancelled by you at your bank and/or with ourselves. Unless we change any information on the Direct Debit schedule (term, claim date or payment) we will not send a reminder the next payment is due. Once a payment has been collected, no refund will be made and any cancellation will be from the next claim date of the payment. You have the right to cancel your Direct Debit in accordance with Direct Debit Guarantee below. If you do cancel, you will receive only the issues you have already paid for. If a gift is included as part of the subscription offer we reserve the right to request the return of the gift in the event of an early cancellation of the subscription.

It's a lost leader. An agreement between the magazine and manufacturer.

They aren't going to chase you and lets be honest, you are getting the magazine cheap as well. Pretty good deal IMHO.

Aldi are currently doing a 44l duffel/roll bag for £10.

I bought the lidl one a few years ago and it's been excellent. The aldi one is better still.

I went for this offer and the Oxford bag never arrived - I questioned this and their reply was essentially:
"No stock lolz, T&Cs mean we can offer you whatevs"
So they've offered me alternatives:

AGE OF SUPERHEROES BOOK
MUC OFF CLEANING KIT
BK PALM RATCHET SANDER (WTF is that, even Google can't shed any light on what this is)

What a crock - basically never subscribe to MCN if the decision has been swung by the free gift, because they'll probably stiff you and offer some massively cheaper product instead.

At the time of writing, they're still offering the Oxford bag as the headline deal for this too. Very disingenuous of them, knowing it's out of stock and then throwing the smallprint at you.

Is the magazine any good?

Based purely on their Youtube videos I'd expect it to be bland, shite and put together on a budget of 50p/month.

I'm back on for a bag - it seems the last Email was incorrect (and they've apologised for the 'misleading info') - although I have to wait another 28 days (which I can suffer)
