Spam!

We seem to be getting items perilously close to Spam on this group... it may be posted with the best of intents, but it's spam nonetheless. It's bad enough on Yahoo...

Just maybe someone trying to point out a good deal through personal experience, wouldn't call it spam exactly and you can choose whether to read it or not I guess.

i think yahoo should be called the spam group now as nothing much apart from spam gets posted nowadays.

My opinion at the moment is that stuff like that is ok in 'Anything else', unless it is very obviously spam. I may well change my mind though if the volume increases!
