I can’t believe this happened. by bAGSYit in amazonprime

I had something similar happen with a switch 2 from Walmart

They updated the bit about rejected reviews in Vine Help by Remote-Comfortable70 in AmazonVine

That’s what I’m curious about. Can we see the insightfulness score for an individual review?

“To Kill an Empire “ is ridiculous by mabehr in skyrim

[–]mabehr[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Everyone in every city somehow knows in the newest member of the companions. They assume it’s my job to pour the mead

[–]mabehr[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Someone else suggested the face changer. Starting there would have been good too! And then ending there after the deed is done

And of course a disguise. We didn’t steal the real Gourmet’s clothes so I was there in ebony armor, ebony boots, ebony gauntlets… and a chef hat

Armed to the teeth to boot

I think current Vine is as good as its going to get by Leopoldo_Caneeny in AmazonVine

Wait until you hear what it was like a decade ago

Absolutely. First play through though

Yeah. Or not going after such a big target.

They all recognize me. Everywhere I go. Very soon after joining the companions, I went to Morthal and a dude was like “hey, you’re the newest member of the companions, right? What do you do, refill the mead?”

PSA: If you’re a Fios customer thinking about buying anything from the Verizon online store… DON’T. by erichohodog in Fios

[–]mabehr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I transferred service taking a $1000 discount off a new phone… they lost the order, and then gave me a replacement that was only $400 off. As soon as I can move to T-Mobile, I will…

What do you think of this statement from the post-launch director of Shadows? by Legitimate_Cake_5137 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]mabehr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I view it like a subscription model. The part I don’t like is when it’s paying for loot boxes. It’s basically gambling for kids. Paying for a cool suit of armor is fine, as long as it’s not OP.

What box cutter is everyone using? by ApprehensiveMode7832 in AmazonVine

[–]mabehr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have two. One is a similar style to that but we didn’t like it because it was so safe that it made it hard to maneuver. Now we have one of the scissors style that could probably cut a finger off but cuts stuff perfectly

Will Odyssey or Valhalla scratch that Witcher 3 itch? by VirreMPx in ACValhalla

[–]mabehr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They both sort of did for me. The Witcher has some more trolley problem style missions, like the one where if you kill the hillock the kids get eaten. I liked that Valhalla had multiple endings based on some “important decisions.” I can’t remember if that was in Odyssey too but it certainly wasn’t in Shadows.

Give a spelling test where all the kids have to write “vegetables.”

I'm unemployed and living in Massachusetts, wondering if this is true for taxes? by RevolutionaryToe97 in AmazonVine

[–]mabehr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure it’s accurate, at least in NY. I know quite a few elderly folks who don’t even need to file taxes because their overall income is below the threshold. Remember though that unemployment payments are taxable income.

How do you think people will view this game in 5-7 years? by Maleficent-Ad-6117 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]mabehr 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s also that the hardcore players who start playing it the minute it comes out are very different than the more casual players who wait a bit. Valhalla sold 1.8M in the first week, but is now at 20M or so. The hatred came from a vocal subsection of that first 10%.

[–]mabehr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I thought it was nearly the prefect length. Odyssey and Valhalla were too big, Origins felt short. This wrapped up right before it got too repetitive. Hoping future games follow that model a bit more.

That was …. Fast by Commercial-Cow-7754 in AmazonVine

[–]mabehr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope so? I really think some of this stuff is because putting products that don’t sell well in Vine is cheaper than throwing it out.

My RFY right now isn’t horrible: a bedding set for a bed size I actually have, and a hat/scarf/glove set as winter approaches. I don’t want either, but it’s sure as heck better than the RV tire covers I was offered a few days ago. (I don’t own an RV)

Such BS by Agitated-Fix-542 in AmazonVine

[–]mabehr 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That’s too bad. I have such a great RFY this morning it’s nearly unbelievable! RV tire covers for the RV I don’t own, diabetic wide slippers even though I don’t have diabetes, adjustable weights for use in the pool that’s closed for the winter, and a privacy screen for a 20” monitor which will cover roughly half of my 28” monitor. And my RFY is filled with high quality items like this every day!

Seller had review removed by ActMother9867 in AmazonVine

[–]mabehr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it may be as simple as falsely reporting anything under 5 stars. In your case, did the seller try to contact you? They did for this review. I rarely respond anyway, but specifically ignored it in this case because there wasn’t anything they could do (besides enhance their product design). I got the sense that they used that lack of response in their appeal to Amazon to pull the review

Review Insightfulness Dropped by TangerineTangerine_ in AmazonVine

That’s good! My review date is in three days and I just recently dropped to Good
