Wonder if a metal detecting dealer could do?
I have made some purchases of products associated with firearm sales online.
Couple places are directing questions to me via email they have from potential customers about products.. These products I have boughtor very similar products.
I don’t mind trying to help folks,

Are you stating that dealers are starting to send potential customers (by email) to people who have purchased certain items for advice. .. ... or a pro's and con's list?

To answer questions about certain product.
Does it fit xxx?
Will it work on xxx?

Evidently staff at these places have little to no knowledge on some items at least. So they are depending on past paid customers of these items to help them with questions. Good idea too if you ask me.

I have been subjected to this 4 times in last couple weeks.

Home Depot has been doing this with their Q&A section for awhile...if you ever gave a review for an item, they send you email asking if you can help answer customer's questions...

Ask them to put you on their payroll!
