If the check for payment is only cashable later than that date, then it must be for the standard, no discount rate and will be cashed on the first day of the first month that the issue is dated (“Issue Dated”). Tournament promoters will be given until the date of their event before we cash their check, but no pre-payment discount will apply and the check must be cashable the first business day after their tournament.

After advertising confirmation on the telephone, you will be sent this agreement COD for the amount of the advertising cost. If the check you submit for COD payment is cashable by the “Mailing Date” date of the magazine, then the 10% discount (shown in parentheses on the above rate chart) applies; if not, then the check must be for the standard, no discount rate and be cashable no later than the first day of the month that the issue is dated (“Issue Dated”).
