"Forum users, while free to ask clarification questions on product specifics, should refrain from commenting on the value or otherwise of commercial offerings and from making [b:8p8f4g3d]comparisons with other vendors[/b:8p8f4g3d]"[/quote:8p8f4g3d]

I think that rule is a bit rubbish myself. This is the market square, but we can't discuss price. Is someone going to get sued or something if we do?

I'd have it out with the mods if I were you, but it's actually pretty clear if you read that post that I linked to at the top of the forum as to why it was done.

I've already read that post, and pretty sure I remember the posts that brought it around. I think it's a rubbish rule, but don't particularly feel the need to have it out with the mods, as it doesn't really affect me, as I know how to get the best value.

I understand why competitors can not comment on each other, but think regular forum users should be able to comment on value, and make comparison of vendors.

I suppose if people don't shop around, it will be their own fault if they do not get the best price.
