Clearout sale January 2012

Lucky DipOkay doke, here’s the deal…

It’s taken some time to clear the Transmission archives from our respective spare rooms and parent’s pantries but we have a couple of boxes of magazines that were unsold and we would very much like to find them a good home.

The short stories and illustration within are as good now as when we originally published them so if you are new to Transmission and want to read some excellent short fiction, or an old fan with a few gaps in your archive here is your chance to stock up on some literary goodness.

As a result we are offering the magazines to you for FREE - with only a postage cost of £1.50 to pay per transaction.


Due to exceptional demand for the clearout offer we are running out of many of the issues listed below.

The offer is still open but please note we might not always be able to satisfy your exact order. Let us know what you want and we’ll do our best. Your order will consist of no less than 3 magazines.


We are offering the magazines in two sizes to suit your needs:

The Archivist Package
With this package you can request specific issues from the stock available below

El Gordo Package
With this package you will receive a obscenely plump parcel containing one of each of the remaining issues - while stocks last!

To snap up either of these options click the paypal button below and specify which option you would like, stating any issues of the magazine you would like to receive - subject to availability.

Also do you know a community group, library or reading group etc… who may be interested in taking a pile of magazines for their members? If so please get in touch at transmissionhq (at) gmail.com We are happy to organise local delivery in Manchester.
