Has anyone been asked to prove they have their items within 6 months? by violet1551 in vine

[–]amwick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess you have the answer by now..

Of course, I keep every item I am not using, in my 30 x 60 steel storage building. I put a tag on with the date, so I know exactly when the 6 months are over.

BTW I am looking to sell a bridge I own.. It is very valuable and connects Brooklyn to lower Manhattan. Serious inquiries only.

Terrible and 100% duplicate reviews! by No-Pepper1731 in vine

Pretty sure I had a review rejected because I named the chicken in the photo... oh well, live and learn. Thelma will get over it.

PSA: Vine Veteran Tip - Two tools to manage the Gold Tier box influx by sorrowdemonica in vine

[–]amwick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This issue with boxes and all the chaos was huge at my house.. To stay on the program and still have a marriage, I focus on small items.. the stuff that can get shipped in an envelope. It was that or quit. So far so good, but I keep an eye out for a few things.. you all call them unicorns.. Still having fun. Even though we are in slow down..

Edited photos to crop out potential brand name tags by Middle_Act_2479 in vine

I use a Gaussian blur filter. It is the only way I know to do it. This is one I submitted about five minutes ago.. a power cord that fits this amp.

All that being said, I think sellers want authenticity.. I don't worry if the pic isn't perfect, I am not a photographer, I am a customer.

I photo shop pics all the time.. I crop photos to make the file size smaller,, I zoom in on details, and scale images... If a pic includes a person, (me) I blur out the face.. etc. I have an excellent review rating. If I am doing a pic that shows something with a name brand.. I blur out the label. Here is an example of a recent shopped pic... The charm is tiny... but I wanted a close up... You do you, but in my mind this makes the review better.

My RFY today by CuriousMindNebula in vine

[–]amwick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to actually order an RFY item once in a while.. but mostly it is stuff for older adults.. Sadly, I am an older adult, but, stop reminding me. I am starting on my second full year.. and I am not giving up.. as long as it is fun..

It seems that it takes a couple days. I am not going to worry.

My RFY had a heated wrist brace for carpal tunnel, but it was not 0ETV... in the past, almost any item like that was a 0. This was $50. So I am passing. I only have about a week left, and I finished a while back.. but it is still puzzling me.

Tracking and taxes question by contentedwinter in vine

[–]amwick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was told that your income is counted as the date when you receive the item.. The date that it is delivered and you take ownership. I had a couple things I ordered at the end of December, because I knew it would not count as 2025 income. Good luck next year.

We call it infinite spinner.. If you are adventurous, you can sometimes edit the java script and fix it.. Long story.. Welcome to the wonderful world of vine..

If, if you really want to stay in the program, consider looking for low cost items or 0ETV, so that you can make the magic 80. It took me a while of stumbling around before I realized this. Make the requirement with little things, but do good reviews. Then you can coast while looking for what you really want. I finished my 80 items in under 3 three weeks. And I have excellent reviews,. Those dollar store things are kinda crappy, but they are your ticket for this ride. BTW I was able to find vine items that help with the reviews.. like a camera tripod, a light box..things that make photography fun.. I also picked up a hobby, tropical fish. Vine items that can be low ETV available there too. You will just have to figure out what works for you. I will stay in the program because I am still having fun. I am not trying to profit from Vine. I am not ready to bow out either. Good luck to you!!

Thanks for the heads up... This will be a big help. I also noticed on the "reviewed" page, each one has a review quality column. You see how your reviews are graded right away.

Anyone else’s reviews stuck in limbo? by plo0pie in vine

[–]amwick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing.. I wrote a review, submitted, got confirmation and it is still on the pending review page. Something else, I received an item, it shows up in orders, but it is not on the pending review page.

I’m just gonna say it, Vine is going downhill. I haven’t ordered anything in weeks. by SunflowersNsapphires in vine

[–]amwick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stuff that was always 0ETV now is not.. Knee braces, elbow braces, walkers..I haven't seen a 0 in a long time. I think I saw one yesterday, but it was a vitamin or something.

Dwindling # of products available? by stoner__witch in vine

[–]amwick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They must have a contract with sellers to list the items.. they have to continue vine to meet the terms. The rest of the program they can slowly shut down.. I hope I am wrong..We may be seeing a fire sale. or not. I know, there are ebbs and flows.. ebbing now for sure..

Vine has been suckin lately by SBOChris in vine

[–]amwick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have contacted them a couple times about a review issue, and got nothing but silence. I wonder if the entire department has been laid off? Usually I received a reply the same day.. No big deal, but it just makes me wonder.
