  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".

    -BB- To reply to me, drop the attitude (from my e-mail
    address, at least)

    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 choose "both."

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

    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...

    It's bike related, and you are not selling it, so I would
    say go for it. There's always the marketplace group too....

    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.
