Conde Nast deserve zero star for begin my subscription to two of they magazine with outdated material . I order on Aug. 4 with the understand the first issue , September 's fall fashion issue , would take `` 4 to 6 week '' for delivery -- that would place it sometime between Sep 1 and Sep 15 . sep 2 , I receive Aug & Sep Vogue and October of the other magazine . I be disappoint for a. not get the fall fashion issue of the one mag and b. get a expire Vogue pre-date my subscription period , short I one issue at the end of my subscription . not sure if palm off expire issue be a intended cost cut strategy or just a oversight , but I loath when company ' default position be to screw over the customer , place the onus upon customer to notice the error and decide whether it be worth rectify , and waste they time fix it . but , when I call cn 's toll free c number the agent quickly and courteously amend my account for Vogue and set the other mag to ship the Sep issue . yay ! 5 star for excellent customer service ! as far as the magazine itself , I quite enjoy sail through the page to see Vogue 's take on the current style in fashion , book , music , lifestyle , etc. . while there seem to be a certain predictability and cliqueishness in the designer they advocate , I very much enjoy Vogue 's presentation of the garment and the overall art direction . I wish there be a better content-to-advertising ratio , though .
