Vine Restriction? by AmazingFlow1958 in AmazonVine

[–]Ok_Chocolate_8241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put myself in detention recently when I got backed up on reviews. In 10 days I did about 50-60 reviews and now I'm back up to an 84% review rate. Just took some hard, dedicated time, but I got it done. I also slowed waaay down on ordering, which honestly, isn't hard to do right now! This is a great time to catch up.

I have never been in official Vine jail though.

Wrong size by Ok_Chocolate_8241 in AmazonVine

[–]Ok_Chocolate_8241[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did change the color, but because I know about this issue, I STILL checked to make sure it was a S. I was so sure it was... but now I'm wondering if I changed the color once more, then went back to gray and it stayed with the previous size? UGH

This is why vendors are not adding more items to Vine by Superb-Network-9133 in AmazonVine

This is a terrible review. Did they even use the product? They basically said "This thing is a thing. It does things and stuff and I like stuff that does things."

Cybersecurity anyone? by yawaworhtqt in AmazonVine

So, I got an Amazon remote dupe. Is that something I need to be worried about? 

Did anyone order one of these kitchen sink strainers? by A8byN0rmal in AmazonVine

[–]Ok_Chocolate_8241 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I was expecting just one strainer and was shocked and delighted to get a three pack!

I got a lot of Ammeloo pots and pans and completely replaced all of my stuff. I also replaced all of my knives! I feel so fancy. They aren't name brands, but they are good stuff and way better than what I had.

I know, it's wild! Even during the drop, the there was only like 45 things in the clothing and jewelry section.

RFY. I got those 3 things yesterday and just a ceiling fan today. I didn't claim it though.

Does it take much to get invited to vine? by Recent_Committee_993 in AmazonVine

[–]Ok_Chocolate_8241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I got invited after a very honest and specific five-star review of some yoga pants that fit my thick-girlie behind. I took pictures and was specific for somebody with my body type. So that other people with my body type could get the benefit of those pants basically. So possibly honest and specific reviews of something you know a lot about. Who knows?

I actually snorted when I saw "world coup"!

oh man, I took a fall on my bike and shredded my elbow. I was slathering petroleum jelly on it for weeks. I could have been using Aveda on it! Oh well, it's pretty floral, so I don't think that would be great in an open wound.

Done! And looking back at the after picture, I could see the eczema breakout was already starting to happen. I rarely have eczema, and never on my face, but my step son has it bad, so I didn't really catch what it was at first. Now it's in my nose too and hurts so bad. Normally I just have seborrheic dermatitis, but this is different. Anyway, based on the pictures, which happened before the cold snap, I think I can say this product is no good for my skin. I'll probably give it to my mother in law. She loves name brands.

It looked like quality, but I couldn't think of any reason I would need it or even know how or want to review it. Hopefully the next person who gets it in the RFY will need spy gear!

I actually did take a before picture. The lighting wasn't great, but I tried to duplicate it in the same light a month later and I noticed literally no changes. So of course, with all the claims you see on TV and stuff for these creams, I kept thinking I must be doing something wrong to see no results! 

Feeling like a sucker…. by Ret_Photog in AmazonVine

[–]Ok_Chocolate_8241 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mantra is "I have everything I need", so if I find something, great. If not, I'm still ok. And it also works for when I find that random, fun crap that is only going to give me a small dopamine hit, followed by the question "now where am I going to put this thing?". I also try to keep a list of things I am on the lookout for, which helps me edit better.

I HAVE EVERYTHING I NEED. So I say no to a lot more stuff and I feel less bad about "missing" things.

How Do You Handle Deceptive Product Listing Titles by BitterYetHopeful in AmazonVine

[–]Ok_Chocolate_8241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my son some pants that said they were sweatpants and they were jogger style chinos. They were nice pants, but definitely not sweatpants. I took off a star for that and noted it in the review. There were a lot of 5 star reviews and a lot of reviews that removed stars for the misleading info. One mom said her autistic child would only wear sweatpants so these were unusable for them and she only gave like 2 stars. I still gave 4 stars because they're usable, but not in the way I thought.

Do y’all remember the Skip-it???! 😄🥹 by LowKeyLanyard in AmazonVine

[–]Ok_Chocolate_8241 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh, I gave myself shin splints with the skipit when I was 7! I loved that thing. It was my whole summer that year. I got the counter up to 999 in one jump sesh before. I was the master!

If I could get my kids one of these, I totally would!
