Henry,

Come on guys, what's the deal here? I love ya and I'm a regular *LOYAL*
customer, have been for many years. Why do you feel the need to SPAM me? I
know what I want and I'll call you when it's time for me to place an order.
Please cease the SPAM immediately!! And, yes, I know about the "opt-out"
option. I never "opt-in" so please be considerate to your customers and not
send SPAM. Think about it, you really don't need to do this. Thank you.

Rita

Just curious, do you consider the catalogs they send you spam, too?
Those catalogs bug me a lot more than the occasional email...

The catalogs are a waste of trees and only serve to add to the weight of
my trash bin.

A couple years ago, I put a B&H item (light meter) on my gift list. My
dad ordered it for me...his first and _only_ B&H purchase. He
subsequently received all the various B&H catalogs ranging from the
massive, professional A/V catalog to the one dedicated to 35mm
photography. Cripes. Get a clue! I see no problem for sending a
photography catalog to a regular customer, but a one-time order???

Drop Henry an email. Though compared to electronic component
catalogs* B&H's are small cheese - at least [most of] the
electronics catalogs are printed on newsprint with no glossies.

*Newark, DigiKey, Allied, Mouser ...
