Our retail prices are based on the trade price that we pay per magazine. We also have to take into account various other factors such as customs duties and shipping costs. These are especially high for magazines ordered from the USA or Australia, for example, and have to be considered in the final price.

All of these factors therefore have to be taken into account when calculating the individual prices.
