Juat a thought for those buying the binders. Each binder holds 20 magazines so 6 binders are required for the main build. The cross section build is issues 121 to 150 so is there going to be two smaller binders holding 15 issues or one larger binder holding all 30 issues?

Confused

Is the cross section a continuation of the full ship or a separate subscription?

I have looked at the main web site but can't see the cross section for sale.

Thanks

I don't beleive the binder format will change.

The cross-section is a continuation of the Victory series rather than being a new series as such, though you can opt out if you choose.

Hang on, are you saying I will receive issues past 120 without formally agreeing to?

I would have thought subscribers will end at 120 unless you opt in. Some newsgents have continued to roll it out into the cross-section, where you can choose to opt out if you wish.

Thanks Tom.

I am a subscriber so could Admin confirm please, that I need do nothing for the issue to stop at 120.

Thanks Tomick - Just wanted to check.

I like the idea of the cross-section but I am torn between the Cross Section and the Sovereign.

Gets quite expensive as I am building the Suprise as well.

There's also a huge difference in the space to display the Cross-section compared to the space needed for the SotS, which might sway your choice.

Admin clarification would be good at this point.

From Admin..

Subscribers will have to ‘Opt in’ to the Cross-section. All will finish at issue 120, so you have to positively 'Opt in' if you want the Cross-section.

A Cross-section offer insert is being enclosed within Subscribers next dispatches. Which will offer Subscribers issue 121 FOC, and then if you wish to continue, you will in effect start from 122, but you must 'Opt in' to be receive it.

The customer service contact number for the Victory and Cross-section is: 0845 01489 213

For Retail/Newsagent customers, if you have a 'shop save' running, this should continue into the Cross-section series as long as the retailer continues to order.
Therefore if you are a newsagent customer and don't want the Cross-section, you will need to tell your newsagent to end your Victory shop save at 120, or if you want the Cross-section, check that your newsagent has continued to order, and 121 onwards should follow.
