Rather than continue the longer thread below I thought I would post a new thread.
As I have said, as far as I can see the magazine damage is the fault of the postal service. I would be very surprised if the publishing company is randomly sending out damaged magazines. The AAW is however in a position to begin steps to find out if there really is a problem and then take steps to resolve the issue. The number of members represented on this forum is very small compared to the total.
I would suggest that the AAW put a questionnaire in an obvious place in the magazine to establish first of all if there really is a problem and if there is, gather geographical data (i.e. zip codes). Since I am not familiar with costs, etc. I would suggest that possibly this could also be handled online as the voting is now as well as mail in. If indeed there is a problem, then the data could be used to pin point the sorting stations most at fault. Having ammunition like this would make complaining much more effective.
I seriously doubt that the publishing company would be interested unless it means a loss of revenue.
