Ethics of \"hijacking\" group buys
Not passing judgement here, just requesting opinions.
I have posted interest in several grop buys recently, and as a result I have received several PMs directing me to someone elses similar item. My question is how the forum as a whole feels about this practice. Is it simply an accepted method of advertising to an obviously interested party? or a shady, somewhat underhanded method of attempting to steal someone elses customer, potentially killing a group buy from ever happening.
O.K., I guess it's easy to tell from my tone how I tend to feel. How about you? No names or specifics please...
