Handyman club???

John,

In my experience they are a scam. I subscribed, the first magazine was junk, I was bombarded with emails trying to sell JUNK, and the final insult; if i PAID for 15 years subscription in ADVANCE, they would GIVE me a lifetime subscription for FREE. I am not making this up. When I refused their kind offer they called several times trying to get me to change my mind. I had to threaten to complain to the state Attorney General to get them to leave me alone. DO NOT GET SUCKED IN. It is garbage. Once again, I am not making this up.

It’s just a lousy magazine with a useless twist. Wood, Popular WWing, American Woodworker, FineWWing, Shopnotes, Workbench, WWing Journal….all better choices IMHO.

I have about 5 of their free drill guides and notepads, and have given away about 5 more. The only “club” I would join is my local guild.

I can’t believe it is still around. I fell for the scam when I first started woodworking.

Hard to shake, ain’t it, Barbara? I saw a sticker on a brand new F350 single-cab non-dually the other day. The irony hurt me.

If I recall I received the same junk mail and then a DVD that I threw away, afterwhich I received emails requesting optional payment for.

My guess is that one of the large online woodworking retailers sold my info.

Scam they sent out a bunch of free router bits last winter. I mailed mine back and they are still tring to collect.

My ex signed me up. I never paid ‘em anything, ‘coarse with my ex there’s no telling. Like Schoey, I got some drill guides and note pads. They did send me this funky 25’ tape measure with a built in line laser. Useless. The drill guides have come in handy. My opinion about the outfit, they’re ‘bout as useless as tits on a boar hog.
