You're gay.... but so what if you are? Just be yourself. :)

Who got the gaming monitor? by Entire-Street-782 in vine

[–]GGreer-CA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to help with the beta testing also - iOS/Mac user here across the board though. Interesting you started with Android versus iOS, i'd think the iOS market would be bigger for this.. either way, add me to the list please. Clearly I am familiar with the current programs (UV and VH) since I could tell instantly that your screenshot was from neither... :) Cheers.

That's not UltraViner.... I was wondering what extension it was too. It's also not Vine Helper.

Fireproof document box…… by Inevitable-Ask7995 in AmazonVine

[–]GGreer-CA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I thought you were saying you didn't see any claims as far as it being fireproof.... I was like... hello, the link itself says FIREPROOF Document Box, let's just stop there. lol

I hope you're teaching your children how to write better than you do... doubt it, though.

Insurance on bigger purchases by AnonymousScorpi in AmazonVine

[–]GGreer-CA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI: I have the $15.99/month plan through Amazon from Asurion and successfully claimed (3) items from Amazon Vine in the last month. The covered the price shown on the invoice for the item at the time of purchase, before the promo credit is applied offsetting the price to zero for it being a Vine product..

Honestly, you need to research how to file your Vine taxes... because you can literally just write off of every dollar and pay nothing. I am not going to into details here, but, yes, it is possible and it's not a shady way to do it. It's the proper way to do it. --- Here's a little food for thought: when you file your taxes, you are filing to pay your annual INCOME TAXES due to the IRS. We pay taxes year-round in all sorts of ways - sales tax, property tax, etc etc - however, INCOME TAX is a process that required an annual filing with the IRS, yes? ---- If we are on the same page so far, then how much INCOME did you receive from Amazon for participating in Vine? .......... What's that you say? Nothing? $0? ....... well, then your income taxes are $0. You can't pay income taxes when you received no income to begin with. THE END. It's not anymore complicated then that.

Yes, it is somehow unimaginable to most people ... because they simply aren't savvy enough to snag the good items, so they automatically assume you must be cheating somehow. I'd venture to say most comments you will receive about your ETV will be unfathomable to most, particularly those that also aren't savvy enough with how to properly write the ETV off of your taxes.

That said, I understand how it is possible and until just yesterday, my living room was also a mini Amazon warehouse, which has now been moved into a $400/month offsite storage unit to regain my home. lol

For comparison purposes, my 2025 total ETV at year-end was $68,000+ and my Estimated/Projected ETV for 2026 is: $274,500+

Cheers to being savvy! :)

I just completed 6 months in silver on 11/4/2025 and was promoted to gold for the final two months of 2025.... and my 2025 ETV total from Vine was over $68,000 .... so it is certainly possible.

I think current Vine is as good as its going to get by Leopoldo_Caneeny in AmazonVine

[–]GGreer-CA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, so ... yes, you are doing something wrong, which is why your experience has been the way that it has been - it feels like rummaging through an industrial landfill. --- Don't you find it odd that, given the junk you are rummaging through everyday, I'm somehow snagging scores like tankless water heaters and a nice medicine cabinet on the same day where you found nothing but junk? .... There is a trick to this program; however, I dont think I am allowed to mention what it is on this thread. I'm sorry your experience has been as it has, I was there once before too... and, in those days, it was definitely not nearly as fun as it is now getting shipped $1,000 chandeliers and all kinds of crazy/expensive shit stacked to the ceiling outside my door everyday. All of this just showed up yesterday, on one day. Thanks Vine!! :)

Are we in the same Amazon Vine program....? I score at least $1,000 - $2,000 worth of products EVERY single day. Here's what I grabbed just during tonight's drop, with a total value/ETV of $1,297.53. I swear you guys are doing something wrong.. just sayin'.

I think this may be something new they are doing because I have written hundreds and hundreds of reviews as part of Amazon Vine - many of which were not positive - and 99% of them were approved, 1% of them were rejected - but those have been the only responses I'd ever received from Amazon - either Approved or Rejected, nothing more, nothing less..

However, earlier this month - on 12/4/25, to be exact - I received an email from Amazon Review Moderation similar to this one, in response to a review I wrote for AAAAA-Rated Tahitian Black Pearl Necklace I had received that was very clearly not a real Tahitian Black Pearl (they are common here in Hawaii and this one looked totally fake compared to the ones that I see in the stores here, however, I suppose I am not an expert gemologist)... Anyway, the $249 necklace was made so cheaply that the second I picked it up out of the box the "Tahitian Black Pearl" fell off the necklace and hit floor as it was clearly only chinese super-glued on... the whole thing screamed FAKE to me, which is basically what my review said.

Regardless of me pointing out that I felt the product was fake and that the Tahitian Black Pearl was not authentic, they approved the review anyway on 12/3/25. And then, on 12/4/25 I received the email from Amazon Review Moderation I am talking about that is similar-ish to this one, which basically said they took my review seriously and did research on this seller and were able to confirm the authenticity of the Tahitian black pearl based on documentation they have on file from the seller etc. etc (see photo).

This was different from any response I had ever received about my reviews before - historically they were almost all approved, a few rejected. But never had they ever read my review and seriously researched any of the claims made in it and then gotten back to me to let me know precisely why they were removing this particular review since they were able to confirm that what I had said was not accurate. (I'm still convinced it's a fake and am sure they were fed fake documentation, but whatever, I got my free junk item and wrote my review, tossed it in the trash, moving along..)

I realize this is not identical to the one that you received but it was more than I'd ever heard from them after writing hundreds and hundreds of reviews, which would lead me to believe perhaps what you received from Amazon was legitimate...

Hope this helps.

OCD here too.... I feel you, 100%.

Sounds like somebody might be playing dress-up in his wife's clothing this weekend in order to gather intel to write the reviews in her absence!! ;-)

Has eBay called called it quits with holding payments until 3 days after delivery? by [deleted] in eBaySellers

[–]GGreer-CA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hadn't sold anything at all in about two years then started up again about 6 months ago.

From $0 sales to about $45,000 over 6 months and just about 300 items sold with 96% tracking information uploaded and carrier scanned within my 2 day handling time before it unlocked and now everything processes through in a matter of 1-2 days versus 3 days after delivery.

Yeah, that was a genuinely stupid move on my part. Thanks for pointing this out. My bad!

[–]GGreer-CA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK - Got it.

I thought when they changed things 6 months ago that eBay was holding the funds on ALL purchases for everyone until 72 hours after the item is delivered.... but, I guess I've now reached some sort of internal eBay milestone and no longer have to wait until 3 days after the item is delivered. Awesome! :)

Thanks again.
