Slickdeals posts are no longer slick deals.
Slickdeals was bought out by Goldman Sachs in June 2018, and it's been barely worth visiting since then. Most posts now are either made by Slickdeals employees, or else by members that get paid in one way or another, and only for stores that pay Slickdeals a cut (mainly Amazon), so posts to "hot deal" are rarely hot deals anymore.

Hi Jack, We don't allow merchants to pay to have deals posted. That said, we do look at deals merchants send to us and if they are deals we think members would really like we will post them. We also turn down lots and lots of deals as well as giving them (merchants) advice on how they can make the deal better so that it might be worthy of getting posted on Slickdeals.
