NEver received magazines
I ordered a subscription from HalfPricedMags.com back in March. I didn't receive anything from HalfPricedMags.com and the magazine within 2 months of the order so I contacted the magazine's customer service to ask about the status of my order. They told me that they cannot find it.
I then contacted the HalfPricedMags.com customer service requesting a refund but received no reply. I started doing research on the internet and found many people having terrible experiences with this company. Finally HalfPricedMags.com wrote back to me saying they can only give me a credit for a future purchase with them!

Took the money no service!!
I purchased a subscription through this company in July 2007. Since then I have been promised delivery and given apologies for losing my order (in a number of times) and as of yet no delivery. I have a number of emails going back and forth that they keep promising the delivery in three to six weeks, which never comes!!
Stay away from these people, they will take your money and do nothing for you... calling the supposed business a fraud is taking it really easy on them... The pricing they show you is great, but when the money is taken you are not going to see any delivery!!! STAY AWAY from them...

No product was received!
I placed an order for four different magazines in March 2007, and I still have yet to receive any of the items. I have attempted to contact HalfPricedMags customer service via email over 6 times in the past 8 months, but I have yet to receive any personalized reply. The company provides no phone number or address on their website for additional contacts, so you're deceived into believing that someone will actually read your customer service email inquiries.
It has become clearly evident based upon my own experience, as well as reading other consumer complaints, that HalfPricedMags makes an unethical habit out of taking people's money without providing ANY product or service.
I will be researching how to file a Class Action Lawsuit against the company given the enormous amount of consumers who have had similar experiences. In the meantime, DON"T SUPPORT THIS COMPANY or you will run the same risk of being ripped off!!!

subscription not fulfilled
Well after reading the complaints here I'm beginning to think I've been ripped off. No issues of a magazine subscription and 3 "help desk" tickets generated with no response after they were generated. Its very easy to set up "help desk" software that will generate tickets.
I did find another complaint board that had some real contact info like the owners name, address, phone numbers. He replied with his email address. Here's the site-

This company has a NY address. I suggest that we all contact the NYS Attorney General's office about this company.

Did not receive subscriptions
Ordered two subscriptions in July and have not received either of them yet. They also do not answer any correspondence. They are an absolute scam company. They should be charged with fraud and cheating the public.

Fraudulent company
I placed an order several months ago, however, I still had issues left from a previous subscription and did not realize my order with halfpricedmags.com was not being filled. I have tried to get in touch with them. I sent one "ticket" through their website and received an email back letting me know they got it and it would be attended to. It hasn't been and now I cannot even get back onto their website. If anyone has a phone number for these people, please forward it along... I would love to speak to them.

Took my money and never filled the order
They took my money, never submitted the orders to the publishers and never replied to my requests for information. Beware of these folks. There are lots of similar experiences. I should have checked here first. I hope my credit card company can help me get my money back.

Unfulfilled order
I ordered two subscriptions in August 2006. On February 16, 2007 I sent an e-mail to halfpricedmags.com asking about the status of my order, as I had not seen the first issue of either magazine. The response came about three weeks later that they had never placed my order. Further, they refuse to place my order now due to the fact that the price has gone up in the last six months - the time frame during which they had my payment, and I was receiving nothing.

Hopefully others won't lose money from this cheating company!
I placed an order with halfpricedmags.com on August 3rd, 2006. After waiting the 8-12 weeks for my subscription to arrive, I began contacting the company to attempt to resolve the problem. I just submitted a fourth request today in an attempt to get either my subscription or my money back. I've not received a response to any of my previous communications so I'm not holding my breath--hopefully others won't lose money on this same scam from this cheating company.
