    As a builder of large ecommerce websites: a significant number of online customers are ordering "from the paper catalogue", That's no excuse for sending them another one with every order ... or several copies to the same address ... but lots of people re-register because they have forgotten their password, and the de-duping software is only smart up-to-a-point.

    Well, don't forget there's the Marketing people who design the catalogue, get it printed, and advise the client how he should distribute it. A business will always want the maximum coverage of past, present and future clients and it's big business for the Marketing Companies. I worked for a Global Advertising Company as a Manager and believe me they can sell snow to Eskimos. I agree there's a lot of wastage in duplication, etc and Companies will have to take a look at the way they do their sales, but as I said they use Marketing Companies to organise, design, print and distribute their catalogues.:snork:
