  1. 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 [censored] 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.

    I choose "both."

    Also, dammit, I paid full price a few weeks ago =/

    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 [censored] 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.
