Nope. Never had a trace of trouble from B&H.
I've had 10 unsolicited commercial email offers from B&H in the last
30 days; slightly more than one per week. That's about average. If I
remember correctly, my last purchase from B&H was in 2006.
Oddly, none of them offered deals on Pentax cameras or lenses.
Plus, they send HTML email and I'm set up to read only plain text. I
just delete them. Less aggravation than trying to track 'em down to
"unsubscribe".
The only commercial entity that emails me more often B&H is Time-
Warner Cable who provide my internet access. It's a constant
bombardment of what's available on various premium channels and pay
per view movies and TV/Internet/cable phone bundles for only $99 per
month for the first 6 months ... and on and on and on and on ... ad
infinitum.
Useless drivel. I don't have a TV. And they're idiots sending HTML
email too.
I delete 'em, but apparently can't "unsubscribe" if I keep my
internet access through them. I *have* made the effort to
"unsubscribe". The only reason I don't just filter them is the off
chance they will send something I do need to know about, like a
problem with the bill.
Tiger direct used to send me something about every 90 days or so,
but I haven't seen anything from them lately. It may be because they
have a local store I shop at, and haven't bought anything from them
online in a while.
I do still get the catalogs in the mail, but now they only show what
they have stocked in the local store.
I opted in to get e-mails from B&H. I get a couple a month. Thanks to
the e-mails I was able to take advantage of some great pricing on SDHC
cards a while back. I also bought a grip when it went on sale. I have
no problem getting sale notices from the vendors I do business with.
I've never gotten anywhere near ten per month.
