Great magazine. Got my sub off eBay too last year for $40, but all of a sudden all these Economist deals disappeared from eBay simutaneously a couple of months ago,anybody know why? Now the cheapest I cant find is $77/yr. JayGatsby said:Got my sub off eBay for less than $50/yr.
I don't know how those sellers do it, or if it's legal, but it sure is cheap!
This is a good price for subscriptions. There were couple of miles program offering Economist but they have stopped it in the recent past. It will be nice to know any other miles program that offers Economist.
On the side note, I am of the opinion that quality of Economist is being degraded in the recent past and I will not continue my subscription once it expires.

Oh I have only been subscribed for half a year so I did not notice whether the quality is degrading.Would you care to elaborate the change in quality?
I like Economist's compactness and breadth of areas that it addresses but I don't like the way it addresses. Few issues that I have observed in the last few years are: Strong political bias in their reporting, their stand on various geo-political issues (I feel its getting more and more leftist), selective information reporting (especially in their 'country' specific surveys), and often lengthy but not much informative articles. Not that other magazines do not have these issues but I feel that Economist is just becoming one of them. This is just a personal opinion.

I have been reading for several years and noticed nothing of the sort. The joy of viewpoints!

Haven't noticed this myself, but then maybe I'm just drifting left along with the magazine. (Or skander is drifting right, hard to say!)
Either way, The Economist is still has the broadest news coverage of any magazine. I'd bet that if you compared the wordcount of The Economist with Time/Newsweek/USNews, it would have 4-5 times more content. (Then again, it's not like I actually read most of the news articles about S.America and Africa.)
