Hot Rods new tactics

**olbuddybob** · July 8th, 2009 06:30 AM

Anyone get a DVD in the mail recently? Looks interesting enough, but I don't want it and didn't ask for it. Now if I don't react and send it back to Hot Rod, I am on the hook for $7.00. I don't like this kind of tactic from any company that send you junk or sign you up for junk where it is up to you to send it back or cancel. What say you?

It's yours to keep my friend. It was sent to you and you didn't ask for it.

You do not have to send it back, and you do not have the send them any money. You didn't ask for it or order it, so you're under no obligation to pay for it.

Yep, I got one too, the first one in their Dream, Build, Drive series. The accompanying letter even said that since you did not order it, you do not have to send it back or pay for it, which is what I am doing.

I have received four follow-up letters requesting that I either pay for it and join the series or send it back, but I am keeping it. Maybe if enough subscribers just keep the DVD and don't pay for it, they will get the message that this gimmic is not such a good idea.

I also received a DVD from the NRA, with the same deal too. My video library is growing without spending any money !
