Two days ago a thread was started and I see it has now been sunk by the mods for some reason. Anyway I responded tonight to what @HofstraJet had whetted my curiosity appetite.
HofstraJet said:
I pulled the complaint today. Will read and let you know what the allegations are.
Still awaiting your findings...I know you are not the judge nor jury on this case, but I'm just curious what are the stated charges whereby YETI feels they were infringed upon! Thanks!...but PLEASE don't send me a bill for your consultation services! =)

    Never heard that this site has Mods. Must be something new.

    guess you haven't been around the block a time or two yet! Some mods are like professional refs who let dirty hits go by time after time, but other mods act like you called their mother a whore! Watch this get censored or sunk by morning!

    Are the RTIC coolers the one @SGH so highly recommended and pushed us to reserve.

    LOL @theyolksonyou . 
    Guilty as stated.
    That said, @RRP has an excuse. 
    I'm not yet retired and envious.  ;)

    @Durangler my dad and FIL are both retired. They're the two busiest people I know, if you believe them.

    I didn't push anyone to reserve. I simply shared a link to what I feel are quality coolers at a very good price. I haven't changed my thoughts one bit on the coolers. The company is still manufacturing the coolers. Yeti tries to sue anyone entering the rotomolded market. Hence Grizzly changing its name to Bison. This was a result of a head butt from Yeti. 


    @RRP
    Click the link and read the first page. Anyone who reserved should be getting notified pretty soon.

    Well said my friend and thank you. I try to share anything that is a good deal or what I feel is a good product. As a owner of a Yeti, Engel, Pelican and a couple of Orcas, I have no vested interests in the RTIC coolers. Just feel that they are a great price and worthy of a look by anyone wanting to save money on a high end cooler. Thanks again brother.

    I have been around the block more than once; just check my sign up date. I still get attacked. I don't mind someone countering a post, but too many just attack anything posted by me,  My guess is that they have small feet.

    I just hope my retirement funds are "safe".

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.
