Interested in starting a new ongoing thread of firearm/hunting related deals.

I spend a decent amount of time researching and reading, and tracking prices of all things forum related. 
 

Someone started a post over Black Friday for deals, and I thought it was quite useful. It was a different pond than what I normally fished in, had a few Amazon alerts that I’m typically not privy to. 
 

I’m on a few dealer email lists, and scan a couple of different firearm/hunting forums. 
 

If we were to start a thread posting deals on firearms, ammo, hunting accessories and were very careful to not post any deals that would potentially undercut fairly recent posts of local transactions, would that be allowed? For example: I responded to a post about .22 handguns, and a member I met with and had talked a about .22s with posted about how he is a fan of the keltec cp33. PSA had a daily deal for a cp33 w/ 2 mags for $350 that quickly sold out. I thought of responding to the thread for anyone interested, but it quickly sold out before I could get home. 
 

I think of myself as a very generous but also financially frugal person. Occasionally I’ve benefitted from a few ammo deals that were clearly an operator error inputting the pricing in and were immediately corrected (hence why I have a case of .40 and no true dedicated .40 guns). If as a forum we were to come across such deals, would this go against any community guidelines by posting? Again, I think there should be a focus on being mindful of not undercutting someone trying to make a sale which could result in a grey area. 
 

Thoughts (maybe from mods)?
