This is half of an idea... people still want/need guidance on purchases.
High quality, curated, independent reviews is probably something that most people would enjoy and appreciate.
That said, the current system is fairly worthless, and what little worth it has is based on hacking it by looking at a specific subset of reviews.
- wyre 6y ago> people still want/need guidance on purchases It’s funny because Amazon normalized folks needing reviews on things before buying it.
- tempestn 6y agoIn a way, before Amazon you effectively did have 'quality, curated reviews' - in the form of what products brick and mortar stores chose to stock. Most decent stores aren't going to stock complete garbage, so if you found an item with the attributes you're looking for, it would probably work.
- lifeisstillgood 6y agoThat is a deep and wise point :-)
- unishark 6y agoThere was also ebay feedback which was key to shopping for a lot longer I'd say.
