I'm trying to figure out when will the comics arrive.
I subscribed on like, the 17 or 16 of September. I know on the website (Archie Comics) it said that allow 6-8 weeks before I get my first issue. I'm still curious. Like issue 183, the shipment date is December 12th, 2007, so what I'm trying to say is am I going to get that issue on that date or am I going to receive it sometime after or before? If you still don't know what I'm trying to say, just tell me, I don't bite.;)

( Oh yeah, I live in Birmingham, Alabama if that helps)

EDIT: Nevermind

Subscriptions are tricky. In the cases I've heard of (including my own), the first issue tends to arrive AFTER the second issue. I put in my subscription before 177, yet received 178 first, then 177 a week later. It's a rather stupid system, but still ultimately cheaper than buying them off the rack.

As far as when it should arrive normally, take the store shipping date and subtract a week. For instance, this month, 180 was due to come out in bookstores on October 2, I believe, so subscribers would receive it September 25.

Actually I signed up like a week before 179 came out and got it. But it coulda been a fluke.

I have a question about my subscription. I ordered a 10 issue subscription off of Archie's website on August 9th which was a bit over 8 weeks ago, and I still haven't received anything. Is it supposed to take this long or should I e-mail them?

Oceanwind: You should've gotten SOMETHING by now. Did they give you any kind of confirmation?
