Chess Life Magazine

When I join the USCf member, I ask skip their magazine and I just want to pay for their membership and it is a lot cheaper too. If Chess Life was a good magazine, I will pay the extra charge but not view beginner games; it seem they have cover to cover under 1700 uscf games to view. It is horrible chess magazine, I seen in the library some old editions in the 1970's,those back issues are really good, a lot IMs and GMs games and Gligoric had "game of the month" and with supplement games; what happen to Chess Life? It was a good magazine and now it is terrible.

Chess Life Sucks big turkey, it is horrible chess magazine; New In Chess is superior chess magazine.

 I am still laughing a cow in front of a chess magazine; does the cow know how to play chess. lol  Chess Life doesn't have a enough quality IMs and GMs games, maybe they might five to ten GMs games in this horrible magazine and thr rest is beginner games, who wants to go over beginner games and there is nothing to learn from these games.

Hey, I stumbled across my copy of the Chess Life "Cow" issue! And I'll tell you what! I'ma gonna read that there cover article, cuz cows getta bad rap, doncha know. I mean, what did that cow ever do to you? He's justa mindin' his own bizness, hangin' out in tha field, and yur justa runnin' him down, dissin' him! Man, that's really cold! Just fer that, yur not ever gonna be allowed to watch Green Acres no more!

Hey chess.com community!

In short: I'm looking for Chess Life August 2020 edition, as it is (too) expensive to order to the place I live (Europe). I would love to have printed version, but reading digital one is also great! Story below:

Recently I got an idea to check and compare the chess magazines by myself. I did my research on the web and I picked these:

  • New In Chess (April 2020)
  • British Chess Magazine (October 2020)
  • Chess Life (August 2020)
  • American Chess Magazine (I'm still hesitating to buy the latest edition Chess is chick, due to its high price)

I've already ordered NIC and BCM to enjoy their printed versions. However, shipping cost of Chess Life disappointed me very much (starting from $30). I tried to get digital edition, but I need a USCF Members account, which I can't get, because I'm from Europe (Poland). No USCF ID.

So I decided to write here and ask if maybe somebody has access to the pdf version of Chess Life August 2020 and would like to share.
