same as TheUberBob over here.

o.k. i admit it, i started getting NSU only for the cards, but that only lasted an issue or two since then it's cover to cover every other month......well except this issue when i had to take a razor blade to it just to open up the pages, hadn't been cut correctly, but then it was cover to cover

let me first say that i do read every article (eventually) in every issue.

I really enjoy the articles about the classic and vintage stuff.

Interviews, and articles like the one that spotlighted women who do sketch cards are great too.

But i am (almost)always dissapointed by the the articles featuring recent or upcoming releases. They usually read like they were written by the manufacturers advertising department. And often cover far to many pages. i know there is cause for you to remain neutral in your magazine, but at times it seems to me there is some over the top brown nosing.

Two things that i think would make your magazine more enjoyable:

1. Contests, with fun prizes...and multiple winners.
2. Crossword puzzle

A page or two of card related puzzles and Comps gets a vote from me too
Back on topic though, I also rarely look at the price guide, It is the articles and free promos I'm after - and i have to admit to searching for any mention of myself or my CT Buddys
