Ok here is the deal

[drbandkgb]

I personally do not like group buys.. They tend to be run by a non member that has in the past screwed people over on these forums.
They also damage our site sponsors, who may be selling the same items. As of 8-21-15 I will not allow them on the forum unless they are run by a site sponsor.
END OF STORY
Im very worn out by people not reading the GB rules and just posting these up freely.
I am not calling any person out here just stating new rules.

I love deals just like the next person and I hope you understand that this is in the best interest of the forum members.
If you want to jump on one please by all means do so. I see these posted on other forums and in those crazy Facebook pages.

Remember you get what you pay for and then again.. sometimes you don't.

I will reevaluate this down the road.​

Thank you!

Its about time someone reined in these runaway group buys.

What if the site sponsors have done the same as the other GBs goes? Like lack of communication for a few sponsors I've seen on both sites. Do you have a plan to deal with that too?

How does one become a site sponsor? What is the direct process involved to become one so that a product could be passed on to other potential consumers? Not necessarily in a group buy capacity, but in a "Hi, I'm ABC Generic Name Fab company and here is what I can make and sell" capacity.

Yes.. I try hard to bring in sponsors that are great to work with and treat members right. I have in the past not allowed sponsors to re up on Xn due to issues.
