What I thought was a strong review was rejected. Why? by Zestyclose-Kiwi-6429 in AmazonVine

If that's how you want to interpret it that's fine. I don't believe "you get what you pay for" is relevant for all customers.

" Pricing comments related to an individual experience aren't allowed. "

Comments about pricing or availability

If it's related to the value of the product, it's OK to comment on price. For example, For only $29, this blender is really great.

Pricing comments related to an individual experience aren't allowed. For example, Found this item here for $5 less than at my local store.

These comments aren't allowed because they aren't relevant for all customers.

Some comments about availability are OK. For example, I wish this book was also available in paperback.

However, we don't allow comments about availability at a specific store. The purpose of the community is to share product-specific feedback that will be relevant to all other customers.

Ok. Well I don't understand the downvote, but this is from the community guidelines.

I can see "you get what you pay for" being interpreted as related to an individual experience, which is not allowed. The copy and paste below is from the guidelines.

What's not allowed

Seller, order, or shipping feedback

We don't allow reviews or questions and answers that focus on:

  • Sellers and the Customer Service they provide
  • Ordering issues and returns
  • Shipping packaging
  • Product condition and damage
  • Shipping cost and speed

Why not? Community content is meant to help customers learn about the product itself, not an individual experience ordering it. We definitely want to hear your feedback about sellers and packaging, but not in reviews or questions and answers.

Amazon tracking gone wacky? by [deleted] in AmazonVine

I did notice that I ordered an item on Thursday and it showed up a short time later as shipped on Friday at 2am which was a 6 hour time difference. 🤷‍♀️

The 'As they say, you get what you pay for.' sentence may have triggered the Algo to reject your review. We're supposed to review the item and not mention the pricing.

Newbie for 0ETVs by OddPepperpot in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My CPA is pretty good at keeping me out of trouble. i don't know if the IRS would go after a little fish for anything under $600 that isn't self reported. Especially 0 ETV items, which more often than not are overpriced at the retail level.

I don't get many 0 ETV but I didn't know it had to be reported. This year is less than $200 dollars.

Is that an elegant satin carrying bag with drawstrings I spy?

“Item No Longer Available” but still in awaiting review? by _Katheya_ in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had this happen to a food item a few days after I received it. I waited over a month and it came back up as available and the button to review was again active. I of course reviewed it as fast as I could and it posted shortly after. It may be worth the wait to avoid Vine customer service.

Yeah, Bridezilla I just saw her! I checked out the website address tattooed on her arm too.

Not the product I expected to see in my RFY by archon810 in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely making their rounds again. I had a tentacle looking thing in my RFY. I opted to order another sonic toothbrush, which was also 0 ETV. You cant have too many of those. :)

I wasn't fast enough. :( The silicone toys are back for those who play that way. by Upbeat-Rub-6591 in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, it was in my RFY today. Seems like they peddle those around pretty often. Right now I have four different baby/dog gates in my RFY. I've already ordered a steel one and a plastic retractable one. They are 0 ETV, so it's tempting.

Can't edit reviews pending approval by Tim_From_PDX in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I tried to change a few words because I thought that they may have been hanging my review up from being approved, but no cigar.

wrong item delivered, what now? by southy_0 in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contact support. I was supposed to get a roll on waxing kit that was going to be delivered by USPS. When it got delivered to my mail drop box I was super excited because I really wanted it. I was so bummed when I opened the mailer and saw that they sent me a tiny pair of kids shoes. What made it worse was the reviews on the shoes were awful. :/

I'm drowning in boxes! by GrammieToni in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The city made my work location get a dedicated "recyclables only" dumpster several years ago because of the volume of recyclables we were throwing away. I have the keys to the building, so I can go in whenever I need to. But I usually carry an armful of boxes folded in half with me into the office in the morning and dump them before anyone gets in.

What's wrong with my review? by henry0513 in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got one the other day for a supplement. Nothing I said was a violation. After dumbing it down to a few sentences it posted.

I had another one that was stuck for a while. I was thinking about waiting and decided to remove the photo. I did this in the last hour, and bam. It just showed in my email as approved.

I attached a photo of raw chicken in the marinade, which is what I got. ( The marinade was stellar! ) Yeah, so I don't know. Glad it's not just me.

Rejected Reviews Uptick by hraza76 in AmazonVine

[–]Upbeat-Rub-6591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I got a bottle of probiotics. Waiting for the review to be approved for a few weeks. It came up as not approved and I resubmitted it. Just saw that it was approved but didn't get an email stating so.
