dragonlady7An email I just sent to service@sundancecatalog.com.
I recently began to receive your catalog. I do not know why, except that I ordered a few tops from J.Jill and suddenly am getting literally dozens of catalogues I have never heard of before.
I don't want your catalog: I will never buy any of your products. I am something of an environmentalist and not much of a shopper, and it gives me physical pain to see how, when I have spent years of my life trying to avoid excessive waste, my recycling bin is full every week now.
Your catalog says it is 20% recycled paper. Whoop-de-crap; it is 100% wasted on me, plus the fuel it took to get to me. Why do I not even buy tampons but insist on using reusable goddamn menstrual products, only to have you kill fifty trees a year to send me this useless thing I don't even look at the pictures in? Is it because I like doing exceptionally disgusting laundry? I assure you that is not the case.
Stop, for the love of God, stop. I don't want your catalogue. Please take me off your list. Please stop destroying the Earth and raping the environment to try to get me to look at glossy pictures of entirely worthless crap. I promise you I am not exaggerating when I say that there is not one item in your catalog that interests me in the slightest. I know some marketing research must have told you that since I bought from J.Jill I would buy from you; I assure you that is not the case, I only bought the tops from them because they were roomy enough in the bust to accomodate my odd shape. I will never buy from them again, as I already own everything they make that I would ever wear.
Stop sending me your catalog. I won't ever buy anything.
PLEASE.
My name is [my name], my address [address], my Customer # is F5047132, my "source code" is LY20100R.
TAKE ME OFF YOUR LIST FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.
It's not personal; I have 23 more of these emails to write tonight.
Sincerely,
[me]

Date: 2007-10-30 07:55 pm (UTC)Catlog Choice (http://www.catalogchoice.com) is supposed to be a web site that will contact catalog companies for you and tell them to stop sending you stuff. You register (for free), then do a search for the catalogs you're getting and check "stop this catalog" on that window and the site maintainers do the rest.
It does take a couple months to kick in, but hey, it may help...
