Considering this is the 1st time in a long time i have ever seen PC on a slickdeals forum, I am thinking this may be a consultant. What do you think?

Sounds like a customer to me wanting to pass on deals she has found.
 
Wow, I hope lots of people read her post, and go looking for a PC Consultant, or contacting the one they know!! What wonderful free advertising!
 
Whoever it is, they're not doing themselves (or their consultant) any favors. When I tried one of the product links it went to the HO website not a consultants.
 
Oh, I didn't think to click on the link. I just figured it showed a pic of the product. I figured the reader would contact HO if they didn't already have a consultant.

That's why I said it's a customer and not a consultant;)

ok I am an idiot. I guess, I think the way it was written sounded kinda more like a consultant, but if that were the case, the links would be direct to her site.
 
She has added her consultant's name and consultant ID number (though not her contact info)
 
Its a violation----contact [email protected] to let them know. You cannot post your name and consultant ID number.

If you scroll down, another consultant posted all he info to try and get business.
I sent an email to solution center. Is that what I was supposed to do?

nevermind, it is already deleted. That was fast.
 
I sent an email too--but SC isnt open yet---most likely someone else reported it earlier.
 
I just looked at it - the consultant's posting their own info are gone, but the initial poster put up her consultant's name and ID. Is that allowed?
 
You'll get faster response from HO if you send it to [email protected] instead of the general customer service address.

Ann, That is actually the address I used. I looked at a previous post on here that listed it.
I wish I would have written down the other consultants info now. It was deleted I guess
 
Wow, learned something new. I clicked on the link and it went to my website! As long as people don't delete their cookies it looks like they will be directed to your website once they've gone there before! That's a great feature!

Rhonda, I saw that too. At first I got all worried thinking someone was listing my site. I am silly I know.
It is a good feature though
