Off topic & small talk: funny Amazon reviews

Topic created on 29th Jan. 2020 | Page: 1 of 1 | Answers: 8 | Views: 1,495

Hello all,

wanted to buy an e-cigarette today and wanted to sort by customer rating, there has an e-cigarette 4.8 stars and about 50 reviews, I then read through the reviews and one writes of a grill, then fairy lights, bracelets and other nonsense.

https://www.amazon.de/product-reviews/B07TLHYQRD/ref=cm_cr_unknown?ie=UTF8&filterByStar=five_star&reviewerType=all_reviews&pageNumber=1#reviews-filter-bar

What the hell is this supposed to be? Can I trust the reviews now, are they purchased reviews? Packaged reviews? Does anyone know a bit about Amazon and can help me? A customer chat there is apparently not, wanted to ask there already...

Why does Amazon nothing against these strange reviews?

It can easily be that is rated with 50 reviews seller
E cigarette has only 6 reviews, but with 5 stars

An indication are always many photos in the reviews, China dealers insist on something like that, with products where photos are actually nonsensical. The same game, for example, with headphones.

Is certainly not an "Amazon's Choice" item

Amazon uses many nasty practices to make profit. I could now go far, as I myself for a year as a problem solver at Amazon and previously several years a store as a Powerseller operated. However, all my knowledge about this are not well-kept secrets. Therefore, you will certainly find enough input about it using your trusted search engine.

really disgusting... there are also offers on the Internet where you can select packages: 20 reviews 10€ and so on... at least I read about it earlier, but that does not answer my question. Do you think the reviews are for the seller or is there some bug with exactly this product what I reingepostet, that was the question... can not be that I find under an e-cigarette reviews of fairy lights.

do you look at general seller reviews or exactly for the e-cigarette ?

Want to switch now from normal cigarette to e-cig or smoked that longer? I'm missing the scratchy, because I prefer to stuff my own cigarettes. That is from the price also still compatible

The thing with the fairy lights comes from the fact that a few months ago they sold fairy lights in this place.

It is exactly as Klempo77 describes it here! These are the reviews that the seller has received (not exclusively the reviews for the product).
This is not automatic for every item sold on Amazon. This is basically a marketing measure that Amazon offers to the seller.
Usually you can recognize the "far eastern" sellers by this
Is a bit like the OCs that offer you 400% bonus - mostly Curaçao licenses
Edit: I don't think the ratings are fake. Because fake reviews cost extra! Trzdm, rather spend 20 euros more and you are on the safe side that the goods a) arrive and b) also like YOU
