ORIGINAL: KidEpoxy

you'll understand the difference between a membership based perk and a commercial rag
membership Perks are only on sale at one retail store rack but not others?
The retailer Walmart? No MA.
The reatiler Local Hobby Shop? I saw the PPP magazine (with a retail price on the cover like MA)

So I guess a retail store doesnt carry it, unless it is a retail store that does?
Just what regulation or regulating entity is prohibiting Walmart/Gas&Go/LocalHobbyShop from carying it the magazine with a price on the cover
GOOD POINT!!! There is nothing stopping ANY membership based orgs magazine from being stocked on retail store shelves. But my last point addressed why you do not see membership based org magazines on main stream media outlet channels. And once you learn why .... you'll discover that the AMA, AOPA, EAA, NRA and likewise are not just insurance providers and personal vending machines for guys like you .... they actually provide a SERVICE for their members and that #1 service is being part of something that for the most part, the public is not part of, unless they become a member. But I can understand why you don't understand, same with Hoss.
