Since many of you don't seem to shop at Walmart or Target, I thought I'd create a thread specifically for wholesale retailers. Which one of them do you prefer for buying in bulk?

I'm compiling all of this data into a spreadsheet for my own purposes.Why are you so interested? Will any TA members' shopping habits make a difference to you? Just curious.....

I've already read the TOS and privacy policy. There doesn't appear to be anything in there that disallows me from doing what I did.Heck, why not start by asking the site owner here how he feels about your attempt at data gathering for a commercial purpose without your having disclosed it.... even if the data was offered voluntarily as if in response to some casual inquiry. People set up threads with this look and feel all the time just because they're trying to figure out what brand of something to buy or where to look for stuff they want, etc. But that's not what this thread was about and only now you [almost] say so?
Simon Ventures doesn't invest in underwear...Does that spreadsheet have a column titled PREFERRED UNDERWEAR ... ?
Perhaps not, but not disclosing that you were doing this for a commercial entity implied the thread was for edification of you and other forum members. I find that disrespectful.I've already read the TOS and privacy policy. There doesn't appear to be anything in there that disallows me from doing what I did.
I find that disrespectful.
I encourage you to tell that to them.The word "unethical" also comes to mind......
I encourage you to tell that to them.
