Question Group buys

I'm confused about what the rules are about group buys being offered by businesses to the members here.

Does a business have to be a vendor to offer a group buy to us?


No free advertisements - If you are the owner or employee of a company, don't mention it, or put links and phone numbers in posts or signatures. Only Supporting Vendors can use links and numbers in signatures and posts.
If you are developing a product, you may talk about it until you have it ready and/or you are taking orders for the product. At that point you must become a Supporting Vendor to be able to promote your products. Buying and Selling – Private party sellers may offer to sell individual items. No person, company, or business of any size shell attempt to sell merchandise, products, or services of any retail nature, or to make a profit of any kind. Anyone attempting to sell multiple quantities of items or in a retail/profit nature without being a Supporting Vendor of this site will be in violation of this site's rules and Terms of Use.

Then my confusion increases since there are two non-vendor group buys going on now.

Please report them.

The one appears to be a product in development and has not publicly requested monies.
However, the request for deposits has been brought to our attention and is being addressed.

Which is the second one? Please submit a report so admin can review it.
