Missing People’s Friend

peoples_friend_stock.JPGWe see to have delivery problems with People’s Friend in any one of my newsagencies every second week.  Yesterday, it was Forest Hill’s turn.  This would not matter if the title was not so popular but with 20 putaways and only a couple off copies left for the shelves we will have between 30 and 50 unhappy customers.  We have spoken to Gotch about this and they have an answer for each occurrence.  I suspect a more systemic problem.  I’d be interested if other newsagents have People’s Friend delivery problems.

    G`dat Mark, we occasionally have PF go missing but lately Auto Action and British Football have been missing everyweek. Just like PF we have putaways for these other mags and it puts the customer out if they make the regular visit just to pick up their mag.
    Cheers
