MAGAZINE REPRINTS
As mentioned on the 21st (below), we have decided to take
the first 5 issues of Modeler's Resource® and put them
in an ebook. For those unfamiliar with an
ebook, it will be in pdf format (so the purchaser will need
the free program Acrobat Reader to open and view the contents),
and will be available on CD. We are also looking into the
option of having this ebook available for downloading immediately
after purchase, from our website. To emphasize, this will
NOT be a printed edition.
COVER
LOOKSEE
We have begun the process of compiling this edition and have
placed up a tentative cover. Please note that this cover design
may change. See it HERE.
We hope to have this project done and available before the
end of the year, or shortly after the New Year at the latest.
Thanks for your interest and requests!

first ebook out shortly after the first of January, 2006.
Stay tuned for more information on this
as it develops.
REFUNDS
We have received the last few foreign
subscriber REFUND checks
from the bank and they are being mailed today. These checks
should be received by their respective subscribers and are
drawn on that subscriber's country's currency. I believe we
are done with all the pro-rated refunds due everyone. As always,
should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact
us either by phone (916) 784-9517 or e-mail:
modres@hotmail.com
11/14/2005
REFUNDS
The last of our foreign subscriber
REFUND checks
are being processed by our bank and we should receive them
sometime in the next 3 to 10 business days. Once we receive
them, we will mail them out to their respective subscribers.
With the exception of the above-mentioned
refund checks, we have completed the process of issuing refunds.
If you do not receive one and believe that you are due a refund,
please do not hesitate to contact us either by phone at 916.784.9517
or via e-mail to modres@hotmail.com
This process has taken us longer than
we anticipated and we sincerely appreciate everyone's patience.
11/07/2005
LETTERS
Added two more letters to the LETTERS
section.
11/01/2005
REFUNDS
More REFUND checks
are being processed and mailed today. We have almost completed
the entire process of refunding all pro-rated subscriptions
to all remaining subscribers. Only foreign subscriptions remain
to be processed and we will need to go through our bank to
have checks issued in that particular country's currency.
This process will take a bit longer than if we were to simply
issue checks ourselves because these checks need to be created
by our bank and then mailed to us. We will then mail them
out once we receive them. We thank you ahead of time for your
patience and as always, please contact us if you have any
questions.
10/28/2005
REFUNDS
More REFUND
checks have been processed and are being
sent out in today's mail. We were hoping to have them all
out by this time, unfortunately in spite of our best efforts,
it has taken us longer than originally thought to complete
the process for these pro-rated refund checks. We appreciate
your continued patience as we move the process along. We anticipate
that all reimbursements will be in the mail by the middle
or the end of the next week. As always, should you have questions
or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us either via
e-mail at modres@hotmail.com or by phone
at 916.784.9517

Issue #62 is scheduled to ship September
29th and 30th! Not only we were NOT late again, but we are
in fact EARLY. No other magazine in this end of the industry
can say that! No one. Enjoy issue #62...and those with remaining
issues on their subscriptions can be on the lookout for pro-rated
refund checks. We will begin mailing them out toward the end
of next week. It's going to take us a while to get through
the entire list (all three of them!), so please bear with
us. If you have not received your pro-rated refund by the
4th week of October, please call (916.784.9517) or e-mail
(modres@hotmail.com).
