Thanks for clearing that up, Chris. I thought deal spotting was against the spirit of rule #4, but I wasn't sure. Now it is spelled out. I have locked those threads that seem to be blatant deal spotting, but left those that are reviews of outdoor products. We all appreciate such reviews, and they are appropriate to this forum. No offense meant to any of he posters. The no deal spotting rule will not affect quality reviews of such outdoor products.
