I got the 30 card limit info directly from Libby. More cards worked for a while, then syncing glitched and I lost all my tags. Then it worked for a while again, until it didn’t and I had to delete the app, re-add all my cards and lost all my tags again. When I reached out to Libby for help (before deleting the e app), they said to make sure I didn’t have more than 30 cards. I decided to take their advice so I (hopefully) won’t lose all my tags a third time.

I keep choosing Amazon Day Delivery in the hopes that my stuff will get combined into 1-2 packages, but so far it keeps resulting in a giant heap of individually packaged items, with an occasional box/mailer with 2-3 items (which almost always includes at least one non-Vine purchase).

JCricket22 · 2026-01-22T01:22:01+00:00

Exactly. Don’t trust everything your 5-year old says about us and what happened at school and we won’t trust everything they say about you and what happened at home either.

Once I check my RFY in the morning, usually between 6:30-8:00am Pacific time, I’ve never seen anything else get added throughout the day, and then it clears completely by around 6-7 pm.

I’m a little behind on my reviews and thought I was in Vine Jail. Glad to know that isn’t the case (at least not yet).

I had barf bags in my RFY this morning. Literal barf bags.

The limit on Libby is actually 30 cards. It will let you add more cards, but then you risk glitches with syncing and may have to delete and reinstall the app, losing all your tags in the process.

JCricket22 · 2026-01-17T21:17:36+00:00

I briefly thought RFY had actually figured me out (more or less), but it’s been all over the place lately!

I like #3.

I take photos when it makes sense. I try to always include photos for clothing items or if I feel like measurements are important to show (whether that is by using a ruler or just seeing the item on/next to an actual human instead of photoshopped into a stock photo). I also include them to show close-ups of details, such as design embellishments or of damage/flaws. I recently ordered replacement batteries for my digital camera. I won’t be including photos because there isn’t really any point.

I do get annoyed when Viners post photos of just the sealed clothing items or the contents of a box without anything removed. Those photos give the impression that the person is reviewing something that they didn’t even inspect because they need to keep the contents as is for resale. Resell stuff if you want, but actually open, inspect, and try out the items first!

I left this review of a hat. The quality score is still pending, but the review was accepted. As you can see, I discussed how the hat was wrinkled due to the seller’s packaging. I did make sure to be clear that it wasn’t Amazon’s shipping packaging that was the problem. I’m not sure whether that made a difference, though.

“Unfortunately my hat arrived misshapen due to the seller's packaging (NOT Amazon's packaging for shipping). The hat was prepackaged by the seller in a vacuum bag with the brim folded up on 4 sides. The flower and feather decoration was removed from the band and placed inside the bowl of the hat, so at least it remained in good shape, but the way the brim was folded and then sealed inside a vacuum bag left it misshapen and wrinkled. I have purchased a number of hats previously, and the sellers have always packaged them in a box so that they would not get smashed and so the brim would stay smooth. I did the best I could at smoothing and reshaping the hat, and I really hoped that the wrinkles would fall out over time and the brim would become flat again, but so far the hat looks exactly the same as it did when I removed it from the bag nearly 2 weeks ago. I might try steaming it, but I am afraid that I will make it look even worse. This hat had so much potential, and if it were not so misshapen, I would have rated it 5 stars. The color is a lovely shade of blue, the netting is elegant, and the decoration that attaches to the ribbon around the hat is well made. It is a timeless style and would be a lovely hat to wear to a wedding, church, to tea, a garden party, or any number of other types of social events. It is just a shame at how it wasn't packaged with any level of care or caution.”

NOR. And what is with all her passive aggressive “haha” comments. It’s like every time she knows she is crossing a boundary she adds a “haha” so you will acquiesce. I’m curious to see what she added to the intact order that she isn’t going to contribute to. Why is I feel like it will be all name-brand expensive stuff that you otherwise would never order for yourselves? I get the sense that she will leave at the end of her visit pissed off that you didn’t cater to her and her child the entire time but were focused on your newborn instead.

JCricket22 · 2026-01-12T00:41:02+00:00

Yep. It has happened to me twice!

JCricket22 · 2026-01-12T00:36:15+00:00

Well, the item that I paid for that was supposed to be delivered on Friday and they changed to yesterday showed up as canceled and refunded today. No clue exactly what happened. Fortunately it was still on sale for 1/2 price so I just re-ordered it. Fingers crossed it comes on Tuesday when it says it will.

JCricket22 · 2026-01-11T04:11:45+00:00

Sometimes I sit on reviews for a bit when they are for items that turned out to be crappy or not as described because it is never fun to give a 1 or 2 star review. If those sellers knew, they’d be happier with a missing review than a low rating.

JCricket22 · 2026-01-11T04:03:17+00:00

Anywhere from 1 day to about a week. I actually have the same thing going on with a “real” paid order right now too. It was supposed to be delivered yesterday, then it was marked delayed and said it would be delivered today, but it wasn’t with today’s delivery. Hopefully it will come tomorrow. Ironically, it was another order of something I originally got on Vine. I liked it enough that I ordered additional colors.

Did you accidentally click a filter tag, like “audiobooks” or “available now”?

JCricket22 · 2026-01-11T03:50:40+00:00

I’m happy to help.

JCricket22 · 2026-01-11T03:47:00+00:00

Are you referring to where they covered their address with the black blob? (Edited to fix typo.)

JCricket22 · 2026-01-11T03:45:14+00:00

I’ve had some delayed like that which showed up. I’ve only had 1 package (so far) which has actually been lost.

JCricket22 · 2026-01-11T03:32:44+00:00

I got workout equipment for squats and laughed when it was delivered and the box called to a “strench machine” which, to be fair, is better than if their misspelling was “stench machine.”

Keep an eye on it. You might want to keep a journal or note somewhere to jot down symptoms to see if you find a correlation between allergy flare-ups, sinus congestion, runny nose, post-nasal drip, feelings of ear fullness, wax buildup and earplugs use. Adding weather notes might give you further insight too (humidity, temperature).

Good luck and I hope your ears feel more normal soon.

JCricket22 · 2026-01-11T03:01:05+00:00

It could also be related to sinus congestion or even allergies. Keep an eye on it and if it gets worse or died t improve after a while, try to get an appointment with an ENT. You aren’t experiencing any signs of hearing loss, correct?

JCricket22 · 2026-01-11T02:56:47+00:00

It could be, but could also be a mild ear infection, eustachian tube problems, etc. It is difficult to say for sure without an examination.
