As far as I know, there is specific List rule regarding the present subject. As long as the posting is not outright spam, I don't see a problem. I'm sure David B. will remind me if I missed something. We have some very vocal listmembers, especially when it comes to vendor discussions. The silent majority on the List vote with their wallets. How that vote is determined is relative. For many, it is balance of service vs. value. People do not always buy based on the lowest price. Highest price does not guaranty the best product either. All that aside, there are some rules about common courtesy. We don't need to write it to know it's being broken. We have different levels of tolerance. That may translate to some that courtesy is relative. I can't disagree. However, there is a level that most people no longer find acceptable. Please use common sense. When in doubt, David and I are happy to take your pmail inquiries.
