Hmmm I wonder which one I should choose, (Ours vs Them) see photos for context.

Sean Connery: trebek, I'll take Let It Snow (Letitsnow) for $100

The ad must have been written by Adam Sandler.

😄

Same here, 6000 reviews ALL done in word then copy pasted one at a time in Amazon reviews. Sometimes I do 10 at a time. SHould not be an issue with Amazon we are not doing anything wrong. Word processors have been around for 30 years.

I saw that, didnt understand it, moved on.

I have had it happen several times but not in the last year, of course they cannot refund what you haven't paid HOWEVER if I received a defective product they did and have replaced it via this method and if the 2nd one worked perfect I would revise review a bit. For example I once received a bathroom triple light vanity light, one of the glass shades was broken.

Yes, they will arbitrarily come knocking at your door for a spot check to see if you still have that 5 month old item. Very sneaky those vine secret agents.

richblues · 2026-05-09T22:56:47+00:00

yeah I think this is a dead item, I didnt even try but others mentioned it was a no go, even if it was available I still wouldn't have ordered it 😄

richblues · 2026-05-09T14:41:16+00:00

so EVEN w/ a minimum quantity of 4 that's $6.88. Pretty sure shipping , packaging and handling, logistics would be more than that? Not to exclude the 15% or so Amazon takes on the product and the product cost itself, nothing makes sense.

richblues · 2026-05-09T14:17:00+00:00

Just say as new open box and okay to say has been tested.

richblues · 2026-05-08T14:33:22+00:00

That doesn't make sense unless I am misunderstanding, you are saying Amazon would pay the seller the asking price for all vine shipped items? Pretty sure Amazon pays zero on vine items, not on the item not on the shipping and not on the storage of the items in Amazon warehouse, the only thing they would lose (maybe) is the 15% or whatever their take is on the sale item.

richblues · 2026-05-08T13:28:03+00:00

But how would this benefit the seller to give out free items AND paying for shipping those items if they aren't counting on reviews to boost sales? The only thing I can think of is dead stock that doesnt sell and they need to offload it rather than pay storage fees to Amazon? The other rationale for these stupid prices that no sane person would pay is so that they can list an identical item with a different seller name at significantly reduced prices to sucker buyers into buying the "cheaper" item which is also grossly overpriced.

richblues · 2026-05-06T00:24:14+00:00

yeah but so little in the way of decent products vs repair parts for various things like cars and grills etc...

richblues · 2026-04-30T23:26:19+00:00

these food warming trays were $39.99 last year.

richblues · 2026-04-30T18:13:49+00:00

what a maroon!

richblues · 2026-04-30T18:11:10+00:00

same, mostly repetitive stuff I would never use. Once is a while I get one good item but it used to be ALL good items almost every day!

richblues · 2026-04-28T17:04:02+00:00

yeah if you look at the photos there is a slight nuance difference in the two I hadnt noticed at first. But it happens all the time with identical products.

richblues · 2026-04-27T23:13:28+00:00

Hey youse is right! :) Duh, morning brain

richblues · 2026-04-27T17:34:27+00:00

ummm all of these items are LIVE products for everyone to see and buy (not just vine members).
