I use my credit card to pay for the magazine. The magazine hasn't arrived, but neither has the credit card bill. It's great that they bill for each magazine which can be stopped at any time. They are wise to get the orders and then do the printing. Think about the waste if they just printed a bunch each time. I'm happy with how they're going about it, and think there will be less lag time from placing the order to having it reach our mailboxes as they become more experienced.
