Bassmaster magazine readers, i need help

wallywallace · 06-10-12, 02:09 PM

i got a dvd in the mail yesterday, my brother got excited and took it, It is from BM and well i doubt it is free if it came with a retrun envalope. My brother took it and watched, threw most of the "the stuff that came with it" away, all that was left was the retrun envalope. have you ever got the dvd from them? it is the Master university one, i assume it is a preview one and then they send em and bill your credit card, so do i keep this one, send it back, idk .

They will send you a bill that you do not have to pay. They hope you pay it. You did not order it. I never pay for it or send it back. Keep and enjoy it.

If you didn't order it, you don't have to pay for it. Several "fishing magazines" try that ploy, they send you something (used to be books) then want you to keep it and pay for something you did not specifically request - it don't work that way. While you're at it, slap your brother around a little for getting into YOUR mail, that's also a NO-NO I don't care how old he may be. Or if you are not into the physical thing, abuse him mentally by telling him it's a FEDERAL CRIME to open someone else's mail and that you've already called the FBI. Tell him he could be looking a a year to two in juvinile detention.............

By law if a product comes in the mail, you can keep it and they cant charge you. if they do, contract the BBB (Better Business Bureau), or your District Attorney.
