REEL DEALS

PUBLISHED BY – MIKE TRICKETT 245 CHURCH ST. HERNE HILL 3218

My thanks to everyone who took the trouble to reply to my questions on future
direction for Reel Deals. The overwhelming response was that it should continue as a
printed magazine and not go online.

I am pleased with the response and the suggestions that I have received. I am mindful
that the variability of postal delivery times, and in the occasional case, of no delivery
at all, which does make it difficult when items are offered on a ‘first in - first buys it’
basis.

There will be a few small changes made from this edition. David Donaldson has
suggested we add a “Wanted in Brief” type column. However, I think we could extend
that to a page of small advertisements - Wanted - For Sale - Free Stuff - Wanted
Known, in fact, anything at all, but limited to say .. 50 words.
As everyone knows, we offer a full page free to subscribers, and I have been pretty
liberal about the one page limit for quite some time, but I’m sure some people are
reluctant to submit a small ad, so we will try David’s suggestion for the next few issues
and see how it goes.

Many of the back editions of RD are available to read on the Reel Deals website. I will
add to that listing when time permits. And from now on, the current editions will be
added three months after they are published.

Currently the last two editions ( September & December 2020) are there and can be
read off the screen.
