Judgin' by the vocabulary of the posts, it's one person?
Feel free to add your own.

Mods: plz leave this open, I think it's important to let users see and judge for themselves the tactics that these companies are using. I would hope Anandtech would be brave enough not to bury this and let the truth come out.

If you have concerns, this issue would belong in FI, not Hot Deals

This isn't a hot deal. Mods will be able to determine if they are all the same IP addy. If I was working for newegg I would always post for newegg and praise the company I work for.
 
Nothing to stop you from posting from different IPs. If it goes back 3 years, you would hope they would be smart enough to post from different places.
 
"Judgin' by the vocabulary of the posts, it's one person? "
- Well you asked if it was one person, and you can tell that usually by the IPs for the poster...
