Buying magazines in shops nowadays

cbts · January 10th, 2022, 07:12 PM

Couldn't find much discussion about this, but wondering if anyone is actually still buying magazines in the shops? And if so, where?

I found a few magazines a while back whilst wondering around a town and looking in newsagents, but most ones I look in recently don't have any at all.

I did brave a local sex shop the other day as well, but the only ones they had were ones that seemed to be more about selling the DVD attached, seemed themed to the one model on the cover.

So anyone still buying, and got any tips where to look?

If you can find any in a shop, ain`t most of them in plastic bags now?

What are your expectations of these magazines, do you look for good looking natural woman without any plastic surgery done and the images in the magazine aren't photoshopped into oblivion? Or are you just curious if they are still selling them in physical stores. I can't see any appeal to modern magazines, i mean look at just these two examples:

Probably just looking to relive the good old days maybe.

Just something about having a magazine in your hands rather than the infinite possiblites on the net.
If not new magzines, do places sell old mags? Or do people have places online that they get new or old mags?

Some UK online sellers of vintage back issues:

https://www.adultmagazineworld.co.uk/

https://www.mensadultmagazines.com/

https://vintageadultmagazines.co.uk/vintage-magazines/

https://adultmagazinecollector.co.uk/

Not as exciting as buying a mag from a shop, but there's still some good stuff out there.

I gave up when Raymond ruined M*y*a*r and filled it with interchangeable, identikit East European women. The prices vintage mags are fetching perhaps reflect a yearning for different days and arguably better variety or quality. That said, £25 for a 90s copy is bonkers.

Does not make much sense nowadays, I know that I would be disappointed and they seem to be quite expensive.

I still buy magazines in sex shops. You can get double packs from £5.99 but they will be old by a few years at most. My most recent purchase was Mayfair/Holly Gibbons special. I paid full price and well worth it!

I bought porn mags out of curiorisity relive my teen sensations and I got into jizzing onto porn mags, cum stained and jizz wrecked.

The mags aren't great and some are interchangeable. Mayfair isn't as classy as Club or Men Only anymore. There's a lack of gorgeous natural models who aren't tatooed, chavvy or look like Barbie dolls. The editing is poor, the art of the tease is almost non-existant. On the otherhand you're more likely to find spread pussylips if that's your thing.

I'm in the South of the UK. Not too near London though.

5.99 for a double pack sounds good sickface, the ones I found were 12.95 with the DVD attached.
