      175 grams, sounds like normal size to me.

      Doesn't change the taste of these new doritos. I wouldn't pay 50c for a pack of them anymore.

    Is this some sort of a joke?

    Some one post some ridiculous deal with no evidence of it actually happening what so ever and it get 30+ votes?

    Until you can show me that this deal is legit it will be a neg for me.

        I think it is a fair warning for OzBargainers to be wary that this is unconfirmed. Until the OP lets us know where he got this information, I will add a warning to the top of this deal.

          G'day Neil. First time I've ever seen an unconfirmed deal allowed to be posted on OB.

          Surely the OP needs proof? You may be opening a can of worms here.

          Are there any rules on Ozbargain about publicising insider information?

        • Moderatorneil on 27/08/2014 - 22:52

          @kamoi:

          Nope. Evidence gathered from researching and past experiences leads people to conclusions. Dick Smith had raised its price before offering their previous sale. The OP was making a guess that it would remain the same. Thus the price was more than likely not going to be that price given the weight of the evidence.

          @raven2000: I suppose it's because we would also be able to downvote them, which would undermine their authority, especially if they did something correct but unpopular. Also when their doing mod duties, it's a job so they don't need votes.

          @sama:

          We have a moderator post flag which we use sparingly. The reason voting is disabled on mod posts is so people don't negative vote it and it disappears.

          We switch on a similar flag when a rep makes an important/useful comment that should not be buried.

          Moderator comments are also shown in the yellow drop down box (New, Store Rep, Moderators, Negative Voters). It helps you to quickly figure out issues in the deal.

          I've unflagged this post as a mod as an example.

          @bargainbeast: it also gives competition a heads up . I imagine WW will be very upset about this leak.

          IMHO Neil is being wise in allowing this deal to go ahead on the basis that (a) the poster has credibility and (b) it benefits the community.

          Rules have a place, but knowing WHEN to break them is just as important.

          I dont think the poster have much credibility if at all.

          2 deals post and a couple of comments about woolworth deals is hardly enough evidence as solid credibility.

          (b) it benefits the community.

          It won't benifit anyone if it is a hoax.

          At best they are giving this deals the benefit of the doubt but i am sure as soon as it been confirm to be invalid, they will remove it or just leave it and mark all the neg vote as resolve if it is legit.

          Yes, we can see all comment votes. Comment votes used to be visible to everyone but they caused way too many fights in the past. Personally, I don't mind negative votes and negative comments. Listening and responding to negative comments is the only way to improve the community/yourself. A hint we often drop to reps posting on here to deaf ears.
