Why was the Asus Group buy thread moved? The only reason that I can think of is that the other influencial resellers became upset that they were going to lose business. The thread is clearly an Asus thread as much as if not more so than a lot of the threads that live in this part of NBR.
The fact that the thread was moved from the Asus forum isn't as upsetting as seeing it land in the Buy, sell, trade forum which gets maybe 5 members viewing it at any one time. On top of that, the threads that I created for members unsure of which notebook they wanted to buy was either shut down or merged into the other thread.
First of all, I would like to see the Asus group buy thread moved back into the Asus forum.
Second, the thread which I created to help promote the Group Buy (linked to in my signature as "can't decide") should be re-opened. Leave it in the buy sell trade... I don't care where it is, but people should be able to leave comments there.
I have seen nothing but positive feedback from this group buy other than natural skepticism and some bitter resellers whose personal agendas are interfering with consumerism.
Please vote if you agree/disagree with what I have said.

1. Because one vendors bright idea of usng this forum as a billboard for direct marketing is not very original
2. Becuase it does not belong here. Neither my self or the few other resellers that have been here years longer then milestone ever stooped to this
3. Asus has repeteadly declined any involvement with this.
What makes you think that a group buy from one vendor is a service to the public? How original is this idea? Ok lets see. Ladies and gents btotech.com would like to offer a group discount for any asus laptop. Sign up to our list by email. When we are ready we will tell you to pay us and tell you the discount. Dude this is freaking embarassing. I am sorry. -
Because it is pretty much solely related to buying, and moved to a section where other group purchases already exist, plain and simple.
