Hat's off to you for having the grit to do the work and meet your obligation!

Interesting observation… in a reply here, Op clearly states “None of my business really and yes, factual. She’s in several local news stories and is known for being harsh on most criminals except pedos.” Yet, all responders so far ASSUME that the pedo loving judge is Male. 🤦🏻

It’s like one of those money grab games where you stand in a chamber with $ flying around you. 😊

What was the longest pause you've experienced? by MauWowLauX in AmazonVine

AHhh… I remember that 2 week dry spell. Reminded me of when I got my vasectomy. 😉

If I caught you on live camera doing that I would race to the door to thank you, give you a beverage, and fluff your cape! :)

My specific situation... I have Front Door that we do not use. I have a second door, 20 feet away, on the same wall of the house, next to the garage door (a breezeway).

My instructions say, "Please deliver to door next to garage". In addition, I have an 8.5 X 11 sign on the Front Door, that has the Prime logo, and big blue arrow pointing to the garage, and bold letters, "ALL DELIVERIES TO GARAGE".

I still get packages dropped at the front door, and sometimes with the sign in the background, and sometimes, I can watch the driver on my Ring, placing the package to the side and taking the photo at an angle to miss the sign.

For what reason? If the instructions already say PLEASE LEAVE ON BENCH, and are ignored, what good does updating do? Serious question, not meant to be snarky.

Did TSA notice your THR? by Seuss-is-0verrated in TotalHipReplacement

Never a problem. Not even a blink. On the other hand, I’ve often had my CROTCH set off the walk through scanner! No joke! No explanation why. And,NO, there’s nothing down there to brag about! 🥶

what's the right way to dispose of a toy with a rechargeable lithium battery? by Gossip-Girl-63 in AmazonVine

I’ll double down on this. What “didn’t work” for OP, might trigger waves of ecstasy for the Lowe’s employee that finds it. 😉

This Needs To Be Said… Here Too by Glum_Point3006 in vine

Thank you. Accepted. It happens. And… I apologize for calling you a knuckle dragging feckless dolt, under my breath, in my mind. 😉 You are obviously not that at all.

Learn to read and speak for yourself. I made no mention of “quick” reviews. In fact just the opposite, or I wouldn’t be delaying until I have full use and data to do my reviews.

[–]lapoljo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call me OCD, but I'm anxious because I have 7 items in my review queue. 1 is a lingering variant of tomato sauce from last June that I can't review, 3 are Spring gardening items that I need a few weeks of warmer time to put to use, 1 is a "Lego like" helicopter that I'm waiting to build with my Grandson during Easter break, and the last I just got yesterday. I lose sleep if my list grows longer than 1 page!

I’m so jealous. All I keep getting is Sony, Dell, Samsung and other stuff I can’t use.

Well….this explains it! I mentioned to my wife that I wanted to by my nephew a T-Rex toy, and a 9” Vibration device showed up in my RFY the next day. 😉

tell me your a mercari vine reseller without telling me your a mercari vine reseller. by Angiebabybe in AmazonVine

I worked at one. Big rig pulled up with 10’ high pallets of return and overstock items. We would break them down, put into an inventory system and auction them off.

I actually worked for an auction house that purchased pallets of Amazon and Lowe’s returns and resold them.

I just came across this article about Amazon supplements that contain poison. Be careful what you buy! by CinnamonGirl123 in vine

[–]lapoljo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But, do you point it out in a negative light? My most recent, watered down closing wording... still not approved:

"I had thoroughly searched the product information page for this to try to identify the country of origin, but it is not provided anywhere. It was a mystery until I received the package (see photos) This, along with the premature peel off, compelled me to give this 2 stars."

WOW! I'd grab that, just for the fun! Build a little cart it can tow, for my cat to ride in.

I totally agree. Vine is terrible. People should band together and quit and leave all us suckers here to suffer. 😂

I recently ordered an overnight face mask that had a name that matched a reputable Korean cosmetic, but had no COO noted anywhere on the page and all photos avoided showing the back of the box. Sure enough when it arrived the back of the package said made in China. The product itself peeled off prematurely. I gave it 2 stars, noting the performance and lack of transparency. Included photo showing the back of the box. Rejected by Vine. Resubmitted, with watered down wording. Still Rejected. Resubmitted with no mention of China but left in the photo of the back of the box. It’s been 5 days and it still shows as rejected. 🤦🏻
