SALE Warning!

A reminder to all members that we allow threads/posts such as these on the basis that those posting have absolutely no affiliation or connection to the brand names or company concerned. Nor should those posting stand to gain anything from it in any way, and the motive shouldn't be anything other than to share information with fellow hikers and climbers in an unbiased way. Anything to the contrary is viewed as advertising or promotional content which should not be posted without prior arrangement.

If you are affiliated or linked in any way with the gear, brand names or companies you are writing about, in any context on this forum, please contact me first and an agreement can then be set up depending on the nature of the proposed content. As with any content on this site, we reserve the right to edit or delete the content as we see fit.

Thanks everyone for your co-operation.

I think we can allow some flexibility (within reason) to the definition of Sale Warning and I think those posts are quite relevant.
I believe that andrew r and Papa Dragon are acting in good faith and sharing what they feel might be a good deal with other hikers.
As andrew r has mentioned it is not necessary to start a new thread or add his post to another thread.

I also don't realistically see VE members posting "thousands of adverts" so we can rest easy there.
