| The BBB also indicates that most all of the complaints

Rather than "telling your wife" to do the business, which seems odd to me, why not draught a letter yourself enquiring on just how the company managed to get (presumably) your correct name, address in the first place, with evidence on how they received the request for stamps. OK, I can understand your frustration, but it serves no purpose to shoot from the hip. It would think it better for you to consume the energy of anger more towards securing accurate evidence on just what occurred. For example, are you sure your wife sent the stamps back to the correct address? may have they gone to a subsidiary? Then again, it may have been divine intervention, or a Mystic Freudian message, I can feel your angst strongly in your posts, perhaps you do need a good dose of stamp collecting to calm you down |

Were it me, I would simply forget the matter, and give away the stamps to someone that would appreciate them -- or simply throw them out. On the other hand, if you do return unsolicited merchandise, then you must do it against a postal receipt to prove that you have sent it. There's nothing much to whine about, just be practical, and forget about the matter. -- Best regards Ann Mette Heindorff (Mette) http://www.heindorffhus.dk |

I agree that my post was borderline troll-type behavior but that wasn't the intent. And I tried your advanced search but those posts aren't me. Loads of people use to avoid spam.

She did that on her own. It couldn't have went to the wrong address, they give you a postage paid envelope. |

Did you contact them for a catalog or similar? Almost any contact with them will net you 'approvals' which is what you are getting. If you didn't then someone else did in your name. After maybe 6-8 mailings from them that you return they stop sending stuff. At least they pay for the return postage unlike most places with 'approvals'. FWIW, they do have a really nice catalog! Grandpa Forty-some years ago I worked for a mail-order company that sold their line through recruited salesmen. One day the office manager received an indignant letter from someone who objected to receiving our catalogs and sales literature. The manager had someone look up the original card, which he returned to the complainant together with a letter stating that his name had been removed from our records. David Ames |

Imagine this... right from http:/www.bbb.org "Our records indicate a pattern of complaints from consumers who report receiving unordered merchandise and problems with credit/billing procedures." Hey - the dude is still trying to pay off the Franklin "Grill" stamp he "bought" a while back. Guess who's subsiding it? Hmmm? |

I have never had a problem of anykind with them. They were always more than helpful and took care of the wantlists that I forwarded back to them. You can ALWAYS do better price-wise than them. Period. Use your browser to look for better stamp deals. Guaranteed to be able to find some. |
