i read this as a way to ask, why should non-members get the price benefit of the hard work done by forum members to pursue, find and share the great deals?
One of the benefits of joining the forum would be getting access to the special member threads (extra password area).
i am a member on another forum which has such a policy and secret place, and the information found there is especially amazing and helpful.
For example, i have traced numerous driver and charging circuits and would gladly share the schematics with forum members, but not with the general public and robot search engines.
