This is great news...will SCD be able to survive without their ad revenue?

SCD needs to move to a twice a month format like Goldmine to save on costs I think and revamp their whole approach. Some issues there is literally nothing of substance being written about. Not sure what will happen after this though but since most of the articles are written by T O'C it may not affect things much from the editorial side. Ad revenue is another story.....

I just received a renewal notice in the mail today which I promptly threw away BEFORE I read this news. They will still have to convince me that it is worth it but this is a positive step.

Renewing
It's been a couple years since I let my subscription run out, I used to actually have it Fed Ex shipped overnight in the early to mid 1990's, but I am going to renew my subscription and let them know this is exactly why I am renewing it.

I also got a renewal notice Thurs & just this AM used their postage free return env to tell them "I'll never renew to your publication as long as you continue to support Coaches Corner"" and dropped it at the PO!
How weird the timing!

Wow, great news. News I thought I would never hear, actually.
I too will take a "wait and see" approach before renewing,as it wasn't just the CC BS that I had against the magazine, but also a lack of content. But for me, this is a big step in the right direction for SCD.

Before we pat SCD on the back too much, keep in mind that they were partly responsible for the proliferation of the crap put out by CC .... for a long, long time.

Exactly. Being a party and profiting from what they now condemn? I guess they can afford a nice soapbox with all the dirty money...

While away, good news comes. But how good is this news? You can't snap your finger and think everything that has happened, hasn't happened. They did a great deal of damage to the very fabric of the collecting world. They acted as the police, giving us articles about autograph fraud and then looked the other way.
The million dollar question is...how will they handle this fiasco? What do they tell the readers to why this company has been let go? And how will the collectors respond who have purchased from them? Have they even issued a statement of some sort? As this all happens, the Coach's Corner auction hasn't skipped a beat and will be ending on Friday for those of you interested. They have lost me for good. There is nothing they can do to get me back. Larry

O'Keeffe does not hate autographs, he hates the scum who sell bogus autographs.

Imho
These changes may portend a move to every other week. I've actually suggested to TS on several occasions that at this pt SCD would be better served as every other week. Since it appears that SCD is challenging all their past beliefs; the feeling the need to be weekly may go away as well
