Same. Guess if something makes a deal look bad it gets suppressed.

I believe Dan has more integrity then that. Its probably a different reason that I hope a mod or Dan will explain

If you are in the same browser it looks like it's posted but its really not.

I assume you wanted to link the happy birthday post.

Cmon JJ- you should know better than anyone that historically, Dans birthday is when the best deals happen.

All posts about amazon canceled trade ins are posted now on ddms.
Someone actually made $50 by convincing amazon of the hardship this has caused him

Didn't realize it would appear posted although not, so my apologies although sounds like I wasn't off. I guess you just don't think this makes the deal look bad.

Why would this make him look bad ? He took the time to wrote it up and make screenshots . At the time he posted it it was legit. Its not in his power to make amazon keep or cancel a offer. And I believe this is a exceptional instance that amazon would cancel . I did it last time with the canon camera. It worked.

Knew they needed to be approved. Didn't know they would appear posted before approved. Happy birthday. (And not all of us have been here for the whole ride, unfortunately).

Good morning .
Happy birthday Dan.

Do "all" comments go through screening? Or for some posters you know won't write stupid stuff (although even after screening you allow stupid comments) the system approves automatically?

Of course.
There's an incredible amount of spam and other garbage to sift through.

No way to automate pure spam filters?
