Thumbs down Bonnier Publishing Su*ks

These people really have some balls. First, they buy what most consider the best magazine in our sport, then they shut it down, then they reopen, then they shut it down again. Through all of this, they continue to solicit subscribers, thereby misleading a lot of loyal readers. I have gotten three solicitations just in the past week (all email). I have no interest in any of their other publications nor do I want my brand new PB subscription "replaced" with boating or anything else.

During the past couple of years, I have seen many legit, good businesses run by honest hardworking people that have been forced under due to the economy, but yet a bunch of sh!theads like these are still in business! Bonnier, GO AWAY!

Talk about a scam. Stop the magazine, then restart it with a bunch of promises, send out renewals to everyone that had an existing subscription to drum up cash. Cancel it again and send everyone some half ass magazine that they can't give away as a settlement. Class action suit?

Bonnier is a piece of sh!t. Very mature I know, but it's the truth. Let's see if the last issue is in the mail any of the next days.
