The entire magazine publishing world is in a state of chaos because companies that distributed the magazines have gone out of business. Until these problems get solved magazine deliveries may be a little sporadic.
In the past magazines were shipped as freight around the country from the printer to companies that distributed them. Then these companies supplied the last mile delivery by mail or even their own delivery trucks. This was a lot cheaper than having the printer give them to the Post Office for nationwide distribution.
A number of stories about this problem have appeared in "Wall Street Journal" and other newspapers.
