I don't think this guy is spamming for that company. I?m in the web biz and I did a spyFu.com analysis on the overstock company and they're spending a boat load on Google clicks. Also I did one of those alexa.com checkups and the overstock company is the fastest growing company rated in 3 months
I saw this guy, whoever name he goes by, in other other newsgroups doing the same thing,.. he does it with different companies so you know he?s not paid by that company. And I checked that company too and they are legit contractors with A+ rating so I think what this guy, or these guys are doing is testing usenet indexing. When I ran a test this overstock company is spending $15,000 or more a month on Google alone so there is no way they would have some turd like this post one or two ridiculous spam posts and that's all. I ran a search and only found the overstock deal posted in one other newsgroup but also found same guy talking about the overstock companies competitors, alpine and acirect, as well. So you KNOW he isn't being paid from what I can tell. He testing the waters of some sort and we are taking his bait by answering to him which is bringing importance to his thread! We need to simply KILL/Ignore, that's all.
