I would advise against giving this company your email address.

They have ignored 3 polite requests to remove mine from their mailing list, spread over several weeks, and send what I consider to be a large volume of email. This leads me to believe that, while they put the "US CAN-SPAM Law" disclaimer in their mail, it is their policy to disregard it.

That they felt it necessary to post the following rather remarkable blame-shifting diatribe on their page suggests that others have encountered the same problem (and reacted less politely):

"IF YOU DONT WANT TO BE KEPT IN THE LOOP AS TO WHAT IS RESTOCKED OR ON OFFER,THATS COOL, BUT PLEASE REMEBER ITS JUST AN EMAIL ABOUT GREY BITS OF PLASTIC FOR A HOBBY YOU ARE OR WERE INTERESTED IN, IF IT STILL OFFENDS YOU THEN DELETE IT,MARK IT AS SPAM OR ASK US TO UNSUBSCRIBE,PLEASE BE PATIENT AND WE WILL REMOVE YOU, CALLING US NAMES,MAKING THREATS,SPAMMING US OR LYING TO US, WONT MAKE THE PROCESS ANY EASIER FOR US,MAKES YOU LOOK SILLY AND HURTS OUR FEELINGS."

Wow. Very mature.

I've sent these guys eight emails requesting to be removed from their list, and still get spam every two days.

I set up a filter to auto delete all emails from them. The spam is ridiculous.
