Readers of the well-known adult magazine Playboy will have to shell out an additional dollar at news stands starting in February.
Playboy has started testing this price increase in random U.S. cities and claims that the results are positive. It appears Playboy readers are willing to dig a little deeper for their favorite adult magazine. Playboy Magazine representatives blame production cost increases as well as labor and transportation cost increases for the price hike.
One things for sure, the cost increase of the print mag will probably help sales at Playboy’s Online Venue, which is a much better value, in my opinion. After all you can’t watch video from a magazine.
