non-spam

[BB]

So yesterday I heard about a great deal on the Topeak Alien - rei-outlet
was closing them out for $16 (usually $35). I thought about posting it
here, but I figured I'd stir up all sorts of flames about spamming and
such. Not that I really care if anyone bought one of these, I wasn't
selling them.

So the question is: do people want to hear about good deals, or am I just
going to be given a ration of sh*t about "spamming"? I suppose the real
answer is probably "both".

While I might be a little suspicious of a first-timer to AM-B posting about
a deal, it's certainly fine by me, Blaine.

I grabed one of those Topeaks before they all went away. Major sale at
REI yesterday.

Spammer. Actually, I think good bike deals are newsworthy. It would only
be spam if you worked for REI, and even then, if it was a really good
deal...

Spammer!

j/k.

Since you aren't related in any way to REI or Topeak (I ASSume), I
dunno how it could be spamming. Just "sharing good news."

Yeah, go with that.

You post what you want Mr. B. I don't understand why folks spend so much
energy giving a ration of sh*t about what others post, instead of
ignoring them.

I for one like to be made aware of good deals out there, if I'm not
interested, I don't open it.
