the world is a vampire (bat)

uh hello people of polyvore.. question do any of you jolly old souls know if subscribing to magazines via amazon dot com is dodgy. i have a birthday coming up and my mom promised me a Vogue Paris subscription since usually i scrounge around half of oregon to get it every month and since i cant read french and wont subscribe through their site i was concidiring amazon dot com.. i was just wondering if anyones got a subscription throught there because i guess the issues must come in boxes and i was wondering if they come on time or however late they come and if i subscribe now will i get the oct issue. im going to inquire with amaozn via email too just wanted to know if you had any tips.
much love.
