This is so stupid, it is beyond belief! It is amazing that large companies
have such insane management! The catalog can't cost more than $5
to print, and the mailing cost might be $2 (bound printed matter is a special
cheap mail class). Having somebody look up a product, photocopy the
page and then put the photocopy through the FAX machine has got to
cost $15 - $20 in manpower time! If you do this 2 - 5 times a year,
it is actually costing them SERIOUS money to deny you that catalog.
