You know the practice of giving incentives for reviews was banned years ago by Amazon?
You can argue it was real but can still be used to skew the results. People are more likely to give good reviews plus review sooner before it breaks or they discover something wrong with it.
- bombcar 4y agoFair enough. Though the item is still operational in its desired capacity and I’m still satisfied with it. (I didn’t bother reviewing the subsequent one I purchased)
- chillwaves 4y agoIt definitely still happens because I received a follow up in the mail after a purchase on amazon, more than once, in just the past few weeks offering a gift card for a good review. I would argue that paying for reviews is inherently dishonest. So is giving away items for free for reviews.
- sokoloff 4y agoYou know this practice is still going on, right?
- JamesianP 4y agoYes I do. I wasn't claiming the poster had somehow dreamed their experience or something, but rather that it was a overt violation of rules. Completely fake reviews have always been banned on Amazon and this is an article about how rampant they are.
