I was this add on Armorama, which STATES FREE magazine with gifts.



But if you follow the link and go to the site, the magazine is NOT free, and there is no mention of gift.



In my opinion it is a misleading, if not FALSE, advertisement.

Hi Kevin,
I can't see those ads. Most likely these are ads being delivered by Google. I can block specific advertisers by URL or such, but I would need more info to do it on that.

Sorry for the trouble.

Thanks,
Jim

Jim

No trouble, just thought I would point it out. I am wondering if it is an older ad recycling.

Kevin, not sure which link you followed but currently Blitzscales is free and each issue comes with printable gifts (bases, boxes, etc.).

You can download them here:
http://www.blitzscales.com/

Only the first issue required (and still does) payment.

Carlos, that makes sense, the ad link sends you to the FCModelTips site. And there I could not find anything but the paid issue. I think the ad link should be updated.

Thanks for the clarification.

Kevin
