Think about the vendors that paid for advertising. They have told us nothing either. No replies to emails or anything.

This is not cool.

I only saw it here and on Facebook, which they of course now took down. Definitely try emailing them! Hope you all get your money back!

I emailed as others did no response .

I think that there were several people on here who'd been hesitant to purchase the magazine because this same kind of thing happened last time, despite it being handled by different people, from what little I know. I feel awful for the vendors who bought advertising space with them. I was annoyed when I figured out that it was probably lost money but, I'd forgotten about it. But I can't imagine what advertising space cost... I remember a few ads from vendors on here... I really hope they get their money back. I hope everyone does, in truth.

Edit: If they closed their FaceBook, I'd suspect that they're trying to avoid being contacted, paranoid, perhaps but that's what that indicates to me.

I subscribed but later than others because I was worried. I received one magazine I think.

I have this email that I received in August of last year:

I am very sorry for the late reply. I can completely understand your frustration over what happened and your concern with subscribing to Bird Talk again. I can assure you that what happened to you before will not happen again, we are not associated with the old company, in fact, that company is no longer in existence. We only produce birdcontent here and we do not plan to fold any time soon.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions =)

P.S. Do you know someone who might love BirdTalk? Send them to this link here.
Best,


I deleted the name of the employee.

9/15/18 I ordered it.

My first issue was supposed to be the October/November that was mailed out in October. I'll have to go look and see what I actually received.

I'm sad.

I was just going to mention the hundreds of vendors that pay up front for advertising...oh yea, I think bird droppings will hit the fan!!

 

[Hawk12237]

Constant contact mass email to everyone who supported them would be nice. But to simply shut- down is rather unethical.

Yea that is unethical..... I think we should all show em our birds ...!!! The unfeathered ones!

Well that sucks...i take a picture and upload here. At least you'll get that much enjoyment. This is not right. I'll go take a picture for you now.

@Macawnutz
Here's your advertisement, it was in the last issue December/ January.
Their going to have alot of unhappy people to deal with, many vendors and subscribers deserve an explanation and refunds.

It is I've been a member and supported them for years. I have to double check...think I had ever issue they ever put out. Well did, I lent issues out to new bird owners with copies relevant to the bird they had. I enjoyed them. Their articles were great.
Maybe they don't have any more dedicated writers anymore.

I was given old ones and bought some old ones. I hesitated before subscribing ....

It's a crock. They've stolen from vendors and from subscribers.

If you haven't received an email back and no magazine, file a chargeback with your bank, paypal, etc. Get your money back! Don't let them get away with it!
