Who died and named you net.god?

I'm not frowning; are you frowning?   ;^)

I like to see information posted here about where to find good deals and
what their selection & pricing looks like.

As long as no one is using the group for repetitive advertising for some
company, I don't see what you could possibly have against someone posting
information of value to many Amiga shoppers reading this group.

Relax a little.  I don't think this is a problem.
