I think if you look at a lot of the ads in the magazine you'll find a
similar disclaimer, albeit in pretty small print. Some of them will
say "prices supercede all other ads" or something like that. Doesn't
mean I necessarily agree with it, though it does suck about three
month lead time with the magazines publication and all, as these kinds
of issues will come up from time to time. I would think they'd honor
the price if they would want to keep your business.
