So in order for people to be happy you have to pretty much give something away or let them whine.
That is what your two posts have said.
Either you give away a high end product or as you said, you allow whining in order to keep most people happy. "but if they eliminated feedback (whining) , they would have a hard time pleasing most of the people most of the time"

My posts have said that they very likely are not going to disable the comments as you suggested.

Feedback does not equate to whining. As I already stated, they have encouraged opinions and suggestions, disabling comments would not be a beneficial way of obtaining those.

I am certainly not going to call out or single out specific members or their comments. That isn't how I do things. In general terms it is very easy to see which posts are constructive and which ones come across as whining.

I agree, my point is disabling comments would eliminate both thus rendering it counteractive.

Thats not what hes saying, and if he is, my bad. The products offered since the first have flat out been pretty horrid. I understand they have to get rid of old product sitting in the warehouse, but these "deals" havent been very good. Like I said earlier, the products they offer cheaper on weekends are much better than these. But hey, its there company, they can run it as they please, and they do a dang good job as I am a repeat customer. Either way, its all good.

The smartest thing this site can do is disable comments on the weekly announcement. As with anything else in life, no matter what Blowout does, some segment of this community will complain.

I was just thinking the same thing

On another note, I think it would be cool if Blowout made a weekly poll on say sunday night with a choice if 3-4 things that the forum community could vote on for the thursday special

ballsandstrikes- nobody is saying they have to give away the farm with every offer, but they also dont have to clean out the back of the store room on the site also. Its suppose to be win win for this site and blowout. Blowout offers some nice deals to members here, in which generates more site traffic and new members, while blowout picks up new customers who might not have used them before. nobody is looking for $100 off a box a week, but me personally id like to see a more relevant or popular brands offered on occasion, from whatever spot. I think they last few offerings have been weak brands that many people dont have interest in. something as little as $10 off your choice of hobby box, would make me happy.

but offering up brand after brand of stuff that very few people like/want, does little good for scf or blowout, so whats the point?

Overall, the point is taken. BlowOutCards should offer some medium to high end product at least once or twice a month. No need to belabor the point. Let's try to keep the discussion to this product. I let BlowOutCards know how you all feel and have made some suggestions to them based on your input. Overall I appreciate ALL the comments and they are all taken to heart.

it's very simple. you do one of the following things:

buy it

or

don't buy it

if i was blowout i would pull the plug on this whole vip thing and move on. obviously the nice gesture they are doing for the collectors isn't appreciated.
