That's about 7.8 dollars per issue. Cheaper than your RRP of 8.5 dollars.

Including delivery.

They are offering a six month trial subscription as well.

YES. Sign me up for a 6-month subscription. I'll pay only W124,800 for 26 issues, with a total saving of 40% on the cover price.

Bloody good deal.

Very handy price comparison website!

Good reference for what prices you should ask for when shopping at places like Yongsan!

"Best Buyer" is another comparison site, similar to Omi. I use both to ensure I've found the cheapest price.
