Years ago, when the archive was sold on CDs, it would be discounted after a year or so. Now it looks like it is a download.

The only way to get it cheaper might be to keep an eye out for anyone wanting to unload their old copies of the printed magazines.

My interest, being mostly hand tool oriented, was only in the first 5 or 10 years. After that it is more machines, less hand tool oriented.

Being that you are in Italy, it might be easier for you to get it digitally.

So it might be that ~$100 USD is the best you will be able to get a library full of books without incurring high shipping charges.

A 1-year print subscription goes for $40. (In the US. I'm not sure if there is added cost for overseas delivery.)

If you become a print subscriber, you'll get regular email offers to add 1-year of digital membership to your print subscription for an additional $40 ... which gives you access to the following:

514922

So, you'd have a full year to review all the past archives and print/save/download any archive articles or projects that catch your eye for a total of $80 instead of $100.

I haven't seen any other offers for less than that.
