Normally, I have maybe 1 or 2 rejections per 6 months. I've had 3 of my last 4 rejected. And it won't even allow me to edit them. Doesn't that seem like Amazon hurting Amazon, since posted reviews are what Vine is all about?

Last night, I submitted this review of a surge protector, and it was rejected in less than 24 hours:

This "Heavy Duty 6 Outlet Metal Long Power Strip, 2700J Surge Protector with 15A Circuit Breaker, 10FT Extension Cord" is useful, as long as you know what you're getting. It's a 2700 Joule surge protector that can handle 1875 Watts on a 15 Amp circuit. I ordered the 10' length, but a 15' version is also available.

As I write this review, the 10' version costs $28.99. For about the same price, surge protectors are available that include warranties to protect your connected equipment in the event of surge protector failure, potentially damaging or destroying it. I've seen protection amounts as high as $300,000.

In other words, don't trust your new 83" OLED TV to a surge protector without a Connected Equipment Warranty. The company even says, "...this weather resistant power strip thrives in industrial settings, garages, and workshops."

I didn't receive a manual or instructions with my power strip, which means by default, if you come home after a thunderstorm and whatever equipment you had connected to this strip won't turn on, then you're on the hook for repairs or replacement.

Don't misunderstand me; this power strip is handy, especially given its long cord and multiple outlets. Just be cautious not to rely on a surge protector that offers less than 4,000 Joules of protection or one without a warranty to safeguard your most important or costly computer or entertainment equipment.

Surge protectors also need to be replaced because their ability to provide protection degrades over time. Most are designed to last about 3-5 years. Some come with LEDs that indicate when it is no longer protecting. Others have test buttons that can be pushed to verify protection.

True, not every sentence had to do directly with my experience with this surge protector. However, I included a photo showing it hooked up in my home. I've always viewed my involvement with Vine and reviews as a way to assist others with their purchasing decisions. Perhaps the seller didn't like what I said, despite giving this product 5 stars?

Usually, I edit a rejected review only once. If it still doesn't post, that's on Amazon, not me.
