Is it possible to see ALL unexpired deals? It would be nice. And if its not possible I think it might be somthing slick deal's admins should look into.

no, its not available at the moment. we are thinking about implementing a dead deal discussion sub forum, but there are pitfalls to that too.

And if its not possible I think it might be somthing slick deal's admins should look into.It's tough to know for sure when a deal is still unexpired. Whose job should it be to mark a thread expired? The original poster may not be at his computer for hours, and since he's not buying another unit, he may not know for sure himself.
Should the word of any poster be taken when deciding that a deal has expired? It could be (as we've seen) that some posters think a deal is dead when it is still availalbe, they just needed to do something different, like clear their cache/cookies, or get to the discount a different path.

Maybe move expired deals at the end of each night. That way there is time to determine if it is dead or not.
