Any way to obtain copy of PCF?

DCStudios · Post by **DCStudios** » 05 Oct 2006, 22:34

Hello guys and girls. I recieved an e-mail about half a month ago asking for permission to post my freeware application in Novembers Issue Cover Disc of PC Format. I told the rep that publishing it is fine with me. I want to get a copy of the November Issue (when it comes out). However, I'm in the United States though and I do not want to purchase a full 12 month subscription. Is there any way that I can just buy Novembers Issue? Thanks!

PM Cameron. You could get hooked up on an international subscription or ask one of us very nicely to send it to you!

You must give as something in return however. Welcome to the forums, yanky! *joking*

<insert SA word for an American here> whoops

couldn't resist

EDIT: What PCF do you want, UK or RSA?

Welcome, anyways

I'm not sure what copy I need. Here's a screen cap of the e-mail I recived. I'm guessing the South African version...???

EDIT: The issue he said is wrong. He later e-mailed me and said it would be on the November issue.

Thank you for the offer but eh, that's risky.

Risky?! lol, how is it risky? You give me your address, and i send you the PCFormat. What's risky about that? (obviously i'll expect you to pay the shipping. Perhaps that's what you think will be risky...)

Welcome!

)

FransDJ · Post by **FransDJ** » 05 Oct 2006, 22:58

Ok, how much would the shipping be? And also, how would I send it to you? PayPal?

Yeah, um... errr... of course not...

*hides pr0n*

lol, just kidding

I dont know, i'll ship it and then tell you what it cost me. Unfortunately Paypal in SA doesn't allow us to recieve money, only make payments. So you'll have to pay the money directly into my account via a money order.

You can try a bank deposit...but how do you do that in the states since we have different banks from what is in the states

Alright, DAE, when November's Issue comes out I will contact you via e-mail (or whatever you prefer) and we'll arange it.

BTW, can I send you US cash and you can get it converted to SA money?

Cool, i'll send you my email address now. Check you PM inbox.

DCStudios wrote:BTW, can I send you US cash and you can get it converted to SA money?

Well, you're gonna go to your bank and tell them you want to deposit X ammount of dollars that are worth X ammount of South African Rands, and they will do the conversion and all, and i'll get the rands.

DAE_JA_VOO, I tried e-mailing you today but I kept getting the 550 error. "The host cannot be found" or something of that sort. Did you cancel your e-mail account or something? If anybody else is willing to help me please reply. Thanks.

DAE_JA_VOO · Post by **DAE_JA_VOO** » 09 Oct 2006, 22:44

Nope my account is fine. My address is daejavoo777@gmail.com try again

Hmmm.... This is kinda creepy.

If you want someone that actually works @ pcformat contact:

cameron@entertainment3.co.za

Start your letter with: Hi,

Then write: We gave permission to publish our app on your dvd

Follow that with: Can you please hook me up with a copy so I can confirm that everyting is in order "and" I will pay.

Then end it with: Thanx, XXXXX <-- where XXXXX represents your name or Org.

I kinda think that will work better than depositing R40 + shipping in an total strangers bank account.

EDIT: Ike i think he knows how to write a letter

Look, i offered, take it or leave it. I'm just trying to help.

I didn't mean to offend, But this is kinda,sort off official pcformat business

Yes I see how "hook me up with" is very official and professional language...

Anyways DC, either get hold of PCF or DAE. Both are just as trustworthy in these situations as the other, though I expect DAE may have a bit more time on his hands than PCF.
