High Powered Conversations at Mag Nation HQ

It’s not all fun and games at Mag Nation HQ. From time to time, we get involved in some really heavy issues. The email exchange below is completely unedited from start to finish, with the exception of a client name to protect their identity. Seriously.

Two a month, along with two straight porn and one mens mag. I have the others on hold waiting to send out once a couple of gay titles come in, but DNA/Attidude are just lifestyle magazines

    Haha you missed the brilliant email conversation with the said customer. In reply to saying that we just had DNA and Attitude in at the moment he replied “We’ll just wait thanks. Don’t want any long articles for the boys to read.”
