After ordering pick-ups from Guitar Centre, I've received 30 adverts in just over a month. What's wrong with companies, can't they see how off putting this is to be in a mailing list.
 
Ironically, their reply to say can I contact them abut the order went to my spam folder, and the order was cancelled. So I replied asking what the issue was so I can avoid a repeat of the problem when I re-order has been ignored. So I not going to be bothering ordering any special offers if I can't complete my orders.
 
I'll try Sweetwater next time I have a local friend in the US on travels I think.

Personally I don't mind adverts. What I detest is when a company sends me an advert for something I've already bought from them. That is a waste of my time, but they don't care.

I don't mind adverts either. JRR sends weekly ones. But daily and sometimes twice a day, that's taking the p....
 
They are sending me a tone of ad emails, and ignoring my reply regards an order I made so there is no point looking at the ads for things I can't buy.

I like GC. I get ads all the time too. GC is always one hair away from closing so they keep trying to move the cash in. Unfortunately for some of us it has a reverse effect. I hope they never go away since there aren't many brick and mortar guitar stores like them around. The music gear sales biz runs a tight margin. I predict the day will come they are no longer a brick and mortar. 
 
You can opt not to get the emails. There should be a link to stop them. It's usually at the borttom of the email in small print.

That's what I've been doing slowly, but Shirley....unsubscribing.
 
Larry has everything covered when it comes to deals.

G.C. is a desperate animal.

They should reply to my email reply then. I was after giving them my business, I had placed an order and they have an issue they asked about, but didn't clarify what it was.
