Lots of reviews are paid. I get half my electronics refunded by leaving 5 star reviews on Amazon that sellers have asked for in the packages.

  How does this kind of transaction take place? I've bought plenty of things on Amazon that I've left 5 star reviews for, including electronics, but haven't once been approached with refunds or incentives.

    I've often received little cards in my orders asking for a screenshot of a 5-star review in exchange for a 90% off coupon for my next purchase, or something like that.

      Come to think of it, I believe I've had such material come with some of my purchases but I've ignored them because I'm so advertising-averse. I'll have to pay attention for these next time. haha Though I still won't leave a 5 star review if I don't genuinely think the product is worth that.
