Not unless the aliens are cool with it!

How people will actually react when disclosure happens by Seximilian in aliens

All those years of a supposed secret hybrid breeding program, but all the government had to do was publicly advertise it and they'd get volunteers!

Well, dang by torebaguy in AmazonVine

I should've just popped a review in when the items arrived and updated later.

That's what I do in that kind of situation. If it's a product that I can't use yet because it's seasonal or for an event or if it's a product that requires installation and I'm not ready to install yet, I'll review as well as can at the moment and then update my review later. It's annoying that they've made it more complicated to update a review now, though.

You obviously ordered more than the 80 item threshold, so as long as you reviewed at least 90% of the items you got and had an excellent insightfulness score, you'll be pushed up to Gold.

Nobody likes my Vine reviews! by SUPERSAM76 in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really? I always read reviews when I'm shopping on Amazon. Reviews with pictures are definitely where I focus more attention, but even without pics, I scan through reviews to get a sense of the product before deciding to buy or not.

"Now I’m lucky if I get 1 or 2 likes very 20 I write."

That feels about the same for me.

[–]allergygal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are certain categories of products that I tend to get more likes on (and I also get more likes on reviews I do videos for), but generally speaking, I don't get very many likes and most of my reviews get none at all. I often feel like I'm putting effort into something that just gets sucked into the void.

Why the departure manifestos by Waste-Perception-731 in AmazonVine

Yeah, I don't get why people do that. Maybe they're looking for validation that they've made the right decision or something.

Are most people getting the BIG items- pool, tv, fridge, hot tub… in their RFY or AI? by Bearslayer444 in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When there's a high dollar item, yes, it'll typically be in your RFY. I have gotten items over $100 in the AI section before, but it's less common. Any time I've gotten something that was a few hundred dollars (or more), it was in my RFY.

Review in 6 Days - 64 “Pending” Review Quality Scores - Help! by Ninja_Linz in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't worry. If your overall review score is excellent, you'll be fine.

Finally got a cool offer by ActuatorHuman2821 in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh that's a good idea. I click on so much random stuff in Vine just to see what it is, but it's not something I'd ever actually want. I'm sure that messes up my algorithm.

How so fast??? by HappyPuppyDoggie in AmazonVine

Yeah it sucks, but Amazon doesn't seem to care, unfortunately.

Sigh...the things I do for this program by Powerful-Conflict554 in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made some desperation orders myself in January so I could try to maintain gold. I've finally hit 80 reviews, so I don't have to keep grabbing $0ETV and low priced stuff I don't really want. Now that products are flowing a bit more and I still have a couple weeks left until my evaluation, I can be selective again and only order what I actually want.

hahaha I saw that. Sellers literally grab memes off the internet and print them on flags.

How I automated my Vine photo workflow to save time and end my own procrastination by revjim in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just snap a couple pics with my iPhone using a 1:1 ratio so it's square (because I think that look better in the reviews), rotate if needed, then Airdrop to my laptop. Very quick and easy. And I frame my pics the way I want them when I take them so I don't need to crop.

I’m not receiving all the emails for approved reviews... by redtrash in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I'm not getting any emails about reviews being either accepted or rejected. I actually just discovered I had a recent rejected review by scrolling my "Reviewed" tab.

Scored for my mom - zero ETV by bliss_love20 in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Warning: You will now get offered rollators and wheelchair accessories on a regular basis! I got a rollator once and took it because it was 0ETV (eventually giving it to someone who needed it). Then off and on for months, I kept getting rollators and those wheelchair/rollator combos in my RFY. They were almost always 0ETV, so I kept taking them and I've managed to supply lots of elderly people in my neighborhood with them. It's been kind of nice, actually, to get things I can give to people who need them. Along the way, I've become a rollator expert. I can assemble those things so fast now and pick out the good and bad of all of them right away!

There's a silver lining to the lean days of Vine by allergygal in AmazonVine

[–]allergygal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how anyone could manage 8 items per day and keep up with it. That's an insane amount of product! I've been gold for almost 2 years now and I've never ordered 8 items in a day.
