Just my 2 cents, I have been in this hobby just over a year and a half, I did click on all the vendor ads numerous time on Canreef and I became aware of them right away; by contrast it took me over a year to even hear about fragbox (who know is a sponsor) and a year and a half to hear about Big show. If they had advertised I would have known about them a lot sooner and probably bought more from them versus a different non-sponsors. Yes I agree group buys do offer the vendors a little bit of free exposure, but IMO it is no different than us discussing our favorite brands of salt, if the vendors where doing their own group buys then I could see that as a problem.
Anyways , back to the topic at hand... so far we have a total of about $245 pledged. If your plan on participating, please pm me your real name and phone number so that we can arrange pick up times.
Cheers,
