My only concern is this :
If you stop group buy activities or regulate them to make them in-effective compared to before (in terms of savings for the participants) - and therefore - more sponsor friendly - then there could well be a big problem here. Im not sure I would like to be forced into buying from HeadRoom just because the group buy regulations make it less "attractive" to move away from these sponsors. Who I give my business to is not HeadFi's prerogative.
I am sure Jude has his ideas about what this policy will regulate. I hope it regulates WHO can start a group buy and HOW the process should be executed. Standardization is never a bad thing. However if it places restrictions on the PRICING and if it necessitates donations to HeadFi then things get a little uncomfortable and tricky.
All speculation until Jude posts his "policies" for the public to see.
The group buy mess and the DIY crap has left a bad taste in my mouth
