| r.a.m is a good mag with no where near as many ads as its american / european counterparts, and generally good info in it.

Of course every issue isn't going to be to everyones tastes. But for $10 what more do you want?? I find alot of the adverts just as interesting as the articles, it's great to see what new products are available. Our hobby has come so far in the last 10 years, and it's products like Reptiles Australia that will take our hobby forward in leaps and bounds and put it up there with bird and fish keepers. I think it's great that a novice or someone with a passing interest in herps can walk into a newsagency and pick up a magazine such as this.
I think everyone should be behind it, the publishers have taken a huge gamble and would be sad to see that magazine disappear. |
