is anyone familiar with

No problem, sweetie. When I first saw this, I gave it some thought, too, but then realized that I can sell my items by myself, and don't need to pay this company $320 to do it for me. They get about the same exposure as any other website does. And your site probably gets more exposure due to word of mouth. Then I did some research and found that other people had spent the money and the majority of them never saw any results. Those that did see results were more in the market to do wholesaling with mass produced items. For free you can walk around town with your jewelry, visiting shops and offering to do consignment or wholesale, and get better results. Anyway. I'll stop now. :)

Yep - me too. Sometimes on the same day, too. Over and over again. And they always get bounced back to them with Mailwasher. So, someday I hope they get the message. That's called SPAM, and I will never support a company who resorts to that kind of blatant spamming.

If it was one. Or even one a month/2months/6months.

Okay, I take that back. That means you are on a "list". So I would say one time a year. That's it.

Perhaps I am "weird", but I don't have a problem with someone writing me one time. Not 20 people from the same company writing me about the same product.

I very sincerely doubt it, but even if they are "innocently" sending out individually from within the same company, that would mean that it is from mailing lists, not "finding" our websites.

Okay, blabbing again...

good idea - thanks, Barbara!

yes, Tink - two phone lines - one for the studio with a good voice-mail/recorder and one for "personal/home" that you know is just for you?

call forwarding is your friend!
