Merge Hot Deals and Free Stuff

[Dude111]

Change is about to happen! :thumbsup:

Ah man!!

Thank ya buddy

What about adding the prefixes to thread titles in Hot Deals now that the merger is complete (like how FS/FT has the prefixes "Sale" "Trade" etc). They could be set like "Free", "Contest", "Hot Deal"...

Great suggestion. Not sure how difficult it is to do this, but I've brought it up with the rest of the mods for discussion.

Cheers.

Those are called TAGS and it isnt hard to do @ all (I have seen them in use on various VBB sites Im on )

This has been done; you can now add these prefixes to threads in Hot Deals.

Thanks again for the suggestion!

It's time to allow eBay deals in hot deals. MANY big stores sell on eBay, and I find myself on other deal sites to find these deals.

The old reasons to not allow eBay links don't really apply now, and Anandtech is not keeping up with current times. The Deals forum is a shell of its former self and sees very little activity.

Agreed as long as it's a reputable eBay store such as NewEgg. Dell, B&H Photo, etc, no dealers or personal auctions.

Here's the problem from our end though: what's a reputable store?

Not necessary to worry about. If a bad or questionable deal is posted, members can be smart and steer clear as well as warn and help each other with their post. It's not a problem on the two biggest deals sites on the internet.

What about PremierTek_com, PremierTek's ebay store?
