I received one issue then just yesterday a postcard from Cargo advising me they decided to halt publication but that the remaining issues would be sent in the form of GQ or, in my case added to my existing GQ subscription. No messenger bag. Bollocks! I was suckered into a subscription by a mail solicitation and offer of a free Cargo messenger bag.

Less pictures, more words. Must learn how to read. <b>Chuck</b> - I got the first issue free. Hmm, maybe it's a collector's item. <b>Muneer</b> - I hope Juggs isn't. <b>thedvs01</b> - The reason why there are such cheap prices on eBay is because these magazines want as many subscription readers as possible because more readers mean the more they can charge for advertising. As for sellers on eBay, I would just recommend they have a lot of feedback. Also, you really should look carefully at each auction. Sometimes they will have a REALLY cheap price, but charge a shipping fee, which is lame because they aren't paying anything for shipping. So look for auctions that have good prices and don't charge shipping. Also, if you don't see a magazine you want email one of the sellers and they might be able to get it for you. <b>Grins</b> - OOOOH, HOVERCRAFT!!!!!!!! ONLY $14,000!!! SWEET!!! <b>Muneer</b> - Don't forget, a lover and fighter. <b>Andy</b> - If I could steal a whole pickle barrel, I totally would. <b>Hapless</b> - I could totally go for an island. Kidnap people, then drop them on the island and watch their attempts to be rescued...or hunt them. Yup. <b>Webmiztris</b> - Yeah, I guess ass crack tanning is only for a VERY small minority. <b>skibs</b> - Cucumber pilfering is much harder. <b>Domokun</b> - But did he buy any of the stuff. That's the real question. <b>AmberLB</b> - I'm going to take a guess at this, you like shopping. <b>Mellie Helen</b> - Heh, "on the other hand..." <b>Karen</b> - I used to read DETAILS, but I've always thought of it as a GQ wannabe, but could never be gentleman enough. <b>Rick Dobbs</b> - That was an awesome link. Thank goodness for PDFs. <b>Muneer</b> - Laptops make me take longer poops than I should. <b>Mir</b> - More fun than pea pilfering. <b>Rylan</b> - I don't. Rylan – Meh, but I’m getting free issues of GQ magazine. Less pictures, more words. Must learn how to read.

And there's always the one that got all the men's mag craziness started: DETAILS for Men (which i read religiously when it first came out and was only known as "DETAILS" which meant it wasn't chauvanistically-inclined to be "for Men"!!!). And I suppose GQ was the first and probably the best mag out there for ewe doods. I mean you dudes. Marvo, never fear, there’s still MAXIM, FHM and Stuff.

I am a Lucky Magazine junkie ("the magazine about shopping") --- Cargo was the "brother publication". I also now subscribe to Shop Etc. -- similar premise, and I am awaiting my first copy of Adore Shop. I pay for Lucky, but I love free/super cheap mag subscriptions. How sad that Cargo is gone!

My partner didn't take Cargo's downfall that well. Not once, but twice subscribed. And to make it worse, he actually used the stickers to label pages of junk he wanted. Sheesh, now I'm embarrassed for him. Oooooh, yeah, that magazine…yeah. My partner didn’t take Cargo’s downfall that well. Not once, but twice subscribed.
