I received in the mail a DVD which I did not order and the title of it is "Inspiring Ideas for Creating Classic Quilts". Did some of you receive it also? What do you think of it? Do you plan to send it back or keep it.

They enclose a mailing label to mail it back, but if you keep it it costs you $13 and enrolls you in their club and you receive a new DVD every 2 to 3 months. I can only assume that further DVD will cost more.

They also say that you can keep this one as a free gift. It was interesting, but I learn so much from this board that I don't think I need to pay for extra DVD's.

Many here have received these, some send them back, others have kept them. It can't hurt to watch it and then decide if you think you would like more of them.
I am like you, I can find the info here, or for free on the net :wink:

Beware of clubs. It is too easy to get the info online for free.

You are not obligated to pay for it or send it back. If you didn't order it you may keep it for free. The Postal Service says it is illegal to send you something you did not order and ask for payment. this is the link to the information on their website.

A while back I received a DVD also but can't remember from who. I sent it back as I like to look online or on this board for ideas.

My husband told me the same thing I don't have to pay for it or send it back. I did anyway I didn't want the hassle of them sending more or hounding me for money

They count on people feeling that way. Then they send the 2nd and a lot of people pay then because they think they did something wrong by not sending the first one back. You don't have to pay for the second one either.

You did not ask for it.
It was sent to you unsolicited.
It's a gift.
You do not owe anything for it.
You are not under any obligation to:
-return it
-acknowledge it (how do they know if you recieved it or not??)
-pay for it.

You can keep it or throw it away or give it away.

I agree with everyone else. If you didn't order it, it's yours for FREE!
