Are you subbed to the 80s-90s option or to the “surprise me” option?

I have been subscribing to this for three months now and I love it!
The magazines come bagged, boarded, and sealed with a certificate inside.
I’ve gotten two issues from the late 1990s and one Electronic Games, October 1982!

Bagged, boarded, and sealed with a certificate? Won’t that just encourage speculation purchasers calling themselves “collectors” to try to resell them at absurd prices in a few years?

Nah, bagging and boarding something doesn’t turn it into something to speculate on.
They do that for storage and shipping purposes.

Do you get any demo disks with them?
calliope@retrolemmy.com 4 weeks ago
No, they are just magazines!

Booo (presuming they came with one)

I would opt out if it were available. I like magazines, but I don’t find old optical media useful at all.
