    Graham who owns this place is a 'character'. He's a bit curmudgeonly but he's always been polite to…read moreme. Perhaps it's because his shop acts as a thoroughfare from Military Road to Bridgepoint behind, who knows. He's a proud supporter of the Community Bendigo Bank, so his heart is in the right place even if he does breathe fire sometimes. There's a lot of good here. The shop provides a whole heap of services and is a real lynchpin provider in the area. They're well stocked on newspapers and magazines and will seek out overseas title if requested. They do a great range of kids games, toys and magazines, as well as learning to read books and puzzle books. It's actually a good place to head for a last minute kids pressie if other places are closed. Cards, Stationary and arts and crafts things are good too. They also sell bus tickets and stamps. The only real letdown with this place is that they haven't sold me a winning lottery ticket...yet.

    Over the weekend I had an especially negative experience at Spit Junction Newsagency - a community…read morenewsagent that survives on a loyal repeat customer base. I had entered the store with the intent to purchase a copy of Fortune - a magazine that I had not read before but came recommended from a friend. At $11 an issue I picked up the magazine and flicked through it before zeroing in on an article from Warren Buffet. Like most people I wanted to know what I was buying. After less than a minute I was accosted by the proprietor, Graham - "You reading or buying?" I was stunned. "You reading or buying?" he demanded again, this time within 10-inches of my face. I asked if he was serious and he told me he was running a business and that I purchase the magazine or leave. I admit I did not handle it well and my emotional response - I told him to "get out of my face" and used some liberal language - only served to escalate the situation. He went on to call me a 'freeloader' and 'wanker' before aggressively shepherding me out of the shop. With a background in retail and current employment in a leasing role with a large shopping centre developer, this is the worst example of customer service I have ever encountered. While I can appreciate that Graham has a business to run I find it hard to accept that a couple of minutes browse time is not warranted for an $11 magazine purchase for a specialist title. His argument that the publishers are pushing him to drive away 'freeloaders' who consume content in-store without always purchasing the title is hard to fathom when most are giving away content online to increase their readership base. With print going the way of the dinosaur and magazine circulations in perpetual decline I question how a community newsagent can afford to treat customers in this way?

    If there's an unusual or foreign, or unusually foreign magazine that you are struggling to get your…read morehands on, then may I take this opportunity to recommend to you, the World Square Newsagent? I can? Thank you... I will. The World Square Newsagent on Pitt Street, down near, you guessed it, World Square, is just your average newsagents, they sell chocolate and gum, soft drinks, water, stationary, birthday cards, newspapers and magazines. But more importantly, they also import a lot of magazines from overseas. Something a lot of news agencies don' t to do, perhaps for the expense or the lack of confidence they have that the magazine will sell, being that most magazines have a shelf life of one month before they're yesterdays news. I scoured many a newsagent in the inner west, the northern suburbs and the middle of the city, till I finally came across World Square Newsagents. I was looking for an American publication called Script, and no body had it. I was beginning to lose heart. I knew I'd seen it before, I knew it existed, but where? When I entered the shop I realised that they had many more imports as well, not just from America, but from other countries as well. Unfortunately though, there are still issues. I had hoped to get the latest issue of Script, due out in September, but the delivery was running late, this is an import issue and no fault of the Newsagents. Just a juicy bit of information that's not actually juicy and barely qualifies as information.

    Interesting selection of magazines and newspapers. They have Chinese language newspapers but only…read moreEnglish language magazines.

While I do not want to slander the person handling (or the lack of) handling my case. I do have email correspondence that died off with no follow-up. I would like a refund for my product that never was shipped. I'm sure this company is not bad, but the folks in-charge are just too busy or can care-less.

So it should be clear then where I'm going to go with this. I am going to tell you, dear reader, that I love this place. Mag Nation is a magazine store. That is to say, they only sell magazines - no clear-lined writing books, no greeting cards, no pens and pencils and pencil sharpeners, no newspapers, no Archie comics (they do sell some comics but not Archie), they don't sell bus travel tickets, they don't sell cigarettes, no newspapers, no cold drinks. Magazines. That's it. And it's on two levels. That's two levels of magazines. You'll need more than pocket change. The magazines all vary in price and if you're literate and you have hopes, dreams, curiosities, interests, you will likely want to go out the store with more than one so be prepared to come in with a semi-fat wallet.

    I decided that I would like to do some research into whether Australia publishes any humour…read moremagazines like 'The Onion' in the United States of America, so I walked into the Broadway shopping centre and into the Newsagency housed within. The first thing I noticed as I walked in was that behind the counter were four very attractive women. The next thing I noticed was four very attractive woman behind the, oh wait, sorry, the next thing I noticed was the large amount of magazines in this sizeable inner city newsagent. They had a huge range, every topic under the sun one would think, except for humour magazines. But I was quite impressed with their literary section, as most newsagents don't tend to have any. I thought about getting a writing magazine, but it was squarely focused on writing in pros and creating novels, generating ideas and beating writers block, I'm more interested in screenplays, but unfortunately they had nothing for me, (I've already read the current issue of 'Creative Screenwriter and Script') But yes, I took note that they stocked them both. I will return for the magazines, and that's the only reason. The last thing I need is another restraining order, I mean a first restraining order.

    Broadway Newsagency is big.

I found a few for my dad for his birthday, all about folk music and guitar playing. I figured get him a few for his birthday to read, and then buy the subscription for xmas. Well it would have been clever but he hasn't said that he liked any of them... There is a huge range of cards for any occasion as well as stationery galore. I could spend ages looking at notebooks, but I wont walk about that.

    The smaller of the two I've been to it's still not that small given the multiple levels. Where you…read morehave me lost is that most of the ground floor is gifts souvenirs and trendy stuff/stationary. Normally I don't mind but I was surprised given the fact that everything upstairs seemed so condensed because of this like an aisle and that's it. Because of this I didn't get the type of time I wanted to have in what I was told was the biggest in Australia. Your mileage may vary on this obviously but for me that's a dealbreaker. On lighter notes staff were scarce and while nice didnt have what I was looking for. Books were in the best condition of the two and I was impressed by that as again I don't have that where I'm from. Despite that Sydney will eventually be my home I'll definitely be looking to shop in Melbourne more for the genres of my tastes.

THEY HAVE THE *GALL* TO REFUSE A REFUND UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES!?!? The demand my bank account number! They demand 4-6 weeks turn around time for their "Accounts" team to process the refund. WHAT.
