Yes - started months ago, there is no "unsubscribe" and repeated attempts at asking them to stop went nowhere so I was forced to report it as spam so I don't have to see it any more.

I got mine right after I commented on the. Lack and green Bugatti, which is also on their site for sale.

Honestly, it was the first time ever and it didn’t really bother me. Is it against the rules?

Me too...but honestly how many emails do you get. I get one once in 1-2 weeks and don't see a problem there. At least I also get the retail pricelist :) I would really like to sell some of their kits but they are not my interest so far...

I agree that they are not as bad as some major clothing retailers - who sometimes send 2-3 per day during the Holidays - but the point is that any reputable merchant / organization has an "unsubscribe" link for those who didn't opt-in, changed their minds, etc. It's MY inbox not their marketing channel. If enough people report them for spam their domain will eventually be black-listed and they'll have a pretty tough time doing marketing when nobody sees their emails.

Looking at my “missing part” case in this December, I will keep you guys updated. So that at least to test out their after-sales service quality. :D :lol:
