Move to weekly magazine returns by NDD welcome

I am pleased that magazine distributor NDD moves to weekly magazine returns next week.  Besides the cash-flow benefits, there is the opportunity to better manage floor stock.  Some newsagents will take the opportunity to increase the range and try more titles.  I am looking at this for one of my newsagencies where I see an opportunity in several special interest areas.

I HAVE ALREADY GOT MY MONTHLY READY AND WAITING TO RETURN .SO I RANG THEM AS OF YESTERDAY 19/04/10 THE WEEKLY MAGS ARE TO BE RETURNED.SO WHAT DO WE DO WITH ALL MAGS BOXED AND READY TO GO! THERE RESPONSE WAS TO ME, RETURN ON LINE WHAT IS DUE FOR THIS WEEK AND TO CARRY ON WITH WEEKLY RETURNS EVEN IF YOU HAVE SENT THEM BACK EARLY, ACCCORDING TO THERE NEW RETURN SYSTEM! CONFUSED SO AM I!HOWEVER I WILL SEND BACK AS MANY MAGS THAT I KNOW I WILL NOT SELL IN MY AREA! REGARDLESS OF WHAT THEY THINK THEY CAN SEND AND CHARGE ME! I ADVISE ANYONE LISTENING NOT ONLY SEND BACK THE EXCESS THAT WE ARE NOW GOING TO RECIEVE, BUT ALSO TO SPEND AN HOUR TO TAKE CHARGE YOUR ORDERS AND GO ON LINE AND SPECIFY YOUR ORDER! TAKING INTO CONSIDERANCE YOUR TYPE OF CUSTOMERS ,AS YOU KNOW THEM BEST! AND DELET THE TITLES YOU ARE PAYING FOR AND CAN NOT SELL ! xxx

    My stickers are the same. We’re just printing off the weekly return sheet and going by that. Seems to be working.
