A+U Prescription

le bossman

Does anyone know how to get a prescription to Architecture + Urbanism? Everything on their website is in Yen. Can you buy things online in another currency?

if it's a prescription, will my health insurance cover it?

there are a few ways - one, grab a copy of a+u and take the reply/subscription card out of the back...

second, find the english portion of the a+u site. not sure if subscription info is on that part, but i suspect so.

third, if you want to go through an intermediary, try www.onlyarchitecture.com they sell subscriptions to most of the overseas magazines, but probably have a little surcharge on it.

Also, if you do credit card, they will likely just convert. I've ordered books from amazon.co.jp. They were priced in yen, but just charged my card. No problem. Last I checked $1~117 yen.

laru,

do you know if the delivery is any more reliable than subscribing directly...

i only ask because lletdownl had a subscription to detail that never came, and i desperately want it!

i don't know either way - my guess is that they are just signing you up for a subscription directly or (more likely) that they are adding one more issue to their own order to a+u, then mailing you a copy when it comes to them. either way, i'd think it's fairly reliable, insofar as onlyarchitecture.com stays solvent.

it is funny with electronic money, though. it even rhymes. i can't think of any reason why the computers wouldn't just perform the calculation.
