Barnes & Noble Shares Down After Announcement Of $87 Million Quarterly Loss

Magazines are a relatively cheap product to purchase, right? Not necessarily. While most magazines are in the range of costing $5-15 there are certain luxury magazines that have ridiculously high prices per issue. There’s nothing too special about these magazines aside from the price points of the products that they are showing off inside each issue, but they are all the same as the others on the rack, but let’s take a look at the world’s most expensive magazines.

5. Unique Homes – $47.94 per issue

This magazine shows off the most luxurious and high end homes and their interior styles. Unique Homes takes a look at houses around the world that are for sale and feature the top appliances and designs that everyone desires. The magazine is a great read if you need ideas for your current or future home, but will end up costing you $47.94 per issue.

Upscale Living only puts out four issues every year, but in those they cover pretty much all luxury topics available. For those who love to learn about the luxury lifestyle, the Upscale Living magazines offer recommendations and tips for travel destinations, technology, cars, entertainment, and much more.

3. Architectural Digest – $71.40 per issue
