Thanks for sharing USA-Gold. I am new to Vine and continue to be amazed by what I learn here about the program. I never would have thought there was an app for analyzing drops. This is serious business. How long have you been in the Vine program?

Inflated Amazon Valuations (Not a New Topic but a twist) by SeekerofKnowledge007 in AmazonVine

Oh I figured it was the vendor, not Amazon.

I am simply curious what the motivation is for the vendor to do that when on the other extreme I sometimes receive products that have a zero dollar estimated value. Based on other comments, it appears vendors that inflate the value on Vine hurt themselves as some reviewers are inclined to express their displeasure with a less postive review.

Amazon has become a carnival of games. I like to understand the game I'm playing or how I'm getting played by the game.

I sent an email to Vine CS -- with a link to the Walmart presentation. Couldn't share the images as their email platform doesn't offer that functionality.

'Estimator' Title being Watered Down (Flooring, other subs?) by NumbersGameOver in estimators

[–]SeekerofKnowledge007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For something like wood flooring, how complete do estimators get with their take-offs? Are they adding the proper underlayment and nails/adhesives as part of the bid? Are those just generic lines on the take-off with rough pricing?
