miched Posted February 19, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2020 We have a few upcoming cruises I get emails everyday for X to purchase a lot of things that I already have along with the move up notices Today I received a email fro X Re: Your upcoming trip, XXXXX, ! We noticed you still have plans to confirm. Other than purchasing a drink pack, speciality restuarants this is a new one : Thrilling Art Auctions don't miss a second of the auctions register now https://www.parkwestgallery.com/auctions-pre-registration-celebrity-cruises/?allowMobile=y&ecid=em_22886769&rid=1574415294&mes=Celebrity Bon Voyage EM&emsc=AZAUSA_TA_EXCLUDEBKEM0119_USA_PR&empf=Y&emct=E&lnkid=BV_AUCTION I am sure many will be sucked into it thinking it is a special deal and that you need to register to attend as it will certainly be SRO 🤗 Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerunner Posted February 19, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2020 I never get those emails but then again I never check spam folder. I keep 3 emails, one for bills only and purchases, 1 for personal friends etc and one that is more my spam one where I need to put an email into a website etc. to gain access. Keeps everything nice and clean since I go into the spam one about once a month to delete all. Even with my booked cruises I never noticed the purchase extra things emails. Probably just delete them if I get them in my non spam emails. Cruiselines are out to make money, especially now have to figure out how to maximize ship spending because of cxls etc happening. I can see a lot more of these type of emails happening in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted February 19, 2020 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2020 I opted out of marketing emails from X a few years ago, so lucky I don't get those emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted February 19, 2020 #5 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Ugh..... That is beyond outreach. I have not received, or maybe it is filtered out as spam. I have complained for years about the waste of paper they generate and luckily it has been dropping off on many ships. I never even fill in a raffle ticket. They love to give away $100 credits then you feel like your getting a real deal on their "Original" art. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will receive a "digital reproduction" of what you thought you were paying for on the ship. Found this out from a fellow passenger who called Park West after leaving the ship and was informed of what he was actually going to receive. He cancelled and was refunded his cost EXCEPT $250 credit to use in the future!! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talljules1 Posted February 19, 2020 #8 Share Posted February 19, 2020 We the art sales on board, mainly to laugh at the art. It is totally not our taste and seems both derivative and amazingly over-priced. Olives playing darts/poker/drinking cocktails? Those crack me up every time. Somewhat amazed anyone ever buys anything there. 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise a holic Posted February 19, 2020 #9 Share Posted February 19, 2020 I would avoid like the corona virus. Most of the items are prints, sometimes with a few real paint strokes- Enjoy your cruise sans the "art" auctions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
