Price is relative and subjective, and what I think is too expensive someone else might think is a reasonable price. So I’m wondering if anyone takes a star off if they think an item is overpriced, or just ignores pricing altogether. I know people talk about value, I’m just wondering about the rating.

I’m someone who won’t pay $2000 for a purse just because it has a designer label. Other people do though and think it’s worth the money. So if I see a purse I think is cute but it’s double what I’d be expecting to pay for a purse off Amazon (having seen quite a few Vine ones by now), I’m torn.

We all know it hasn't been great pickins lately but IMO there's been a bit of an uptick. So far this month I've gotten a pretty decent frying pan (tested it out this morning, pretty good!), a Dreame hair straightening comb, and last night a very nifty-looking Nutri Bullet ice cream maker. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0H6N83CTJ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Hopefully the dry spell is on the way out. Have you scored any good things? Doesn't matter if it's high value, even useful is good IMO, better than what we've been seeing lately.

Was standing in my living room beside my front door and I heard a strange sound. I thought maybe it was a delivery driver trying to deliver a Vine parcel. Nope, it was a crow pecking the s*** out of an Amazon bag. It had a pretty good hole in it too. It scared the heck out of me.

I do wish we still had Dragonfly/Intelcom delivering here, instead of Amazon delivery. Dragonfly sends me an email to let me know a parcel is coming today and when it is delivered, so I know to look for it. Amazon doesn't send me anything, so I forget about parcels (this one was delivered yesterday).

Hello Amazon Vine

I really like to complete my Reviews on time within the month allocated

but no one is reaching out to me feels like i been ghosted for simply bad luck and visual impairment and webpage design that lack functionality and even information, why was the helpful review feedback dissolved from Amazon page and only found in Amazon App for Phone.

I never use my phone well due because the screen is too small to read, I can see fine with 27 inch 2k monitor a little better but even then I make mistakes, following the cursor can be difficult at times

I am visual impairment, pressed against a process that easy to make an mistake.

why not a Drop Down Menu then select or a confirmation button on following screen

I feel like i being punished for not a such great fair concept

It all started with trying to find how you can view Helpful reviews I seen on Reddit people talking about, I thought I like to know If I am helping other, but I searched and searched forever the morning I accident hit the opt out button. My eyes get fatigued easy from constant scouring for information

So i got up from computer chair and came back moments later with coffee and Doggy on my lap to do another review

I being that I had dog on my lap at the computer on the page that opt out of Vine, my (doggy) started squirming and I hit the opt-out in error, I was a little disappointed that there was not a second confirm button, it all happened in a flash. hoping you can reinstate my profile? I still have items to review and items still being shipped.

I was evening writing review this morning and well that when it happened

Also what happens to the outstanding orders to be shipped, I am lost on how to proceed, since my intent was to stay with the program and participate and stay committed to completing. I was at 95% complete on review well ahead of the game. Granted if my account is not reinstated, I will be hard pressed to desire to complete reviews.

not to be spiteful. it just played on my emotions that I accidentally booted myself and would lack desire to complete since it was not my intentions. Maybe not needed mentioned, but yeah I upset right now and confused how to move forward

I just wanted to add I was on reddit this morning and I saw information posted on how to view helpful reviews on Amazon, I got searching and lost trying to find location, I wanted to see if any of my reviews were helping others, I step off computer for a second confused, lost thinking why is so hard to find.

Then later after the fact I found it can be viewed within Amazon App, not sure why this is not available with a web browser, given it is probably the most used method.

So I got up and took a break from computer, my eyes get fatigued easily

With my poor vision I have hard time seeing mouse cursor at times thinking the mouse was hover over the Opt-out button and sensitive mouse got tapped sitting down I was like half in my chair seeing the screen change, that I could not stop.

I really needed this I live Government Disability, not proud, but it does not pay much, I really want to stay with program,

I had no intention of quitting, I did 4 reviews this morning, I am 12 days away from a gold renewal with a 95% average.

I am crushed by this, I confess my plan was to sell after 6 months in yard sales, already had a one yard sale, since a lot of items are over 6 months old now.

I do not want face homelessness and lose my Dog , this Program gave me hope.

Let’s have another look back at the past week and share your One Favourite item you ordered or received from Vine. Pick the item you were offered of any value that you were most happy to receive.

Has anyone had anything add to their RFY tonight? I only have two things from yesterday and nothing else has been added, and I’ve been checking regularly.

Is this not sort of idiotic?

The product I was reviewing at the word 'SHIT' on it, so in my review I just posted exactly what the product says on it, just stating it needs punctuation.

Why is it that the product can have swear words, but yet my review can't. Is it because they only show pictures of it should 'shit' and not actually the written words on the product page. It just seems a little asinine.

Well after my post today about the bike lock and electric dirt bike which was switched after getting the the bike lock and the fact that I have no scored anything big since going Gold June 13th and that I didn't really mind if I only got small mediocre. Well, I just hit the jackpot, man I am so excited and can't believe it. I was yelling and saying I can't believe this, what a rush that was.

I just happened to refresh my RFY and there they were, I saw the price and just clicked for checkout. I was worried that I could loose them because I had to change my address to my trailer park because I'm not home. Could you loose RFY for taking too long or does it stay for a decent amount of time? I know others would be ordering as well if they have them in their RFY.

Anyhow my first big score, and it just happened today after all my previous post. Man do I feel lucky.

Over the past four weeks I’ve been unable to see any meaningful Intelicom shipping tracking details via their website. The tracking number is reported as either being invalid, or shows the item as being forever stuck at the shippers depot.

Meanwhile, pulling up the items tracking information via Amazon’s My Order’s page shows exactly where the item is during the shipping process.

Anyone else notice this? Sometimes I need to change the delivery date, and calling Intelicom usually gets the job done. But without an accurate/valid tracking number, they’re unable to assist.

From Bike Lock to Electric Dirtbike

I don't normally make it a habit of going back and looking at my past orders unless I want to reorder something I really liked, but today I was simple counting my orders for my current evaluation period. Imagine the surprise on my fact when I read "Misodo Electric Dirt Bike, 4500-Watt Peak Power, 65KM/H.......", I was like I did not order an electric dirt bike but man would I have loved one - can I trade up lol ;)

This has got to be the wildest switcharoo that I have seen myself, so far. I ordered a $9.99 cheap cable bike lock and now myself (and 10+ other vine reviews) have reviews attached to this product - what a bunch of BS. What's even better is there are non-vine reviews both before and after I (and many other viners) ordered the lock yet the regular reviews are for the bike.

I'm not the product/seller police, like I said I don't go into my orders/reviews just to check if product pages still match what I orders - I just happen to notice this today when counting orders in my current evaluation period.

Should I report the seller or product page? or just let it be since the reviews stat what I reviewed. I just hate it because it bumps up the star rating and some buyers simply go only by star rating and this gives the current product a bump on reviews. Sure, there are buyers who will see right through this after reading reviews that don't match. I guess it's the potentials buyers responsibility at the end of the day to read the reviews and not solely depend on star ratings.

What were some of the most surprising switcharoos that you have encountered? I'm sure there are more surprising switches done on expensive products or even some odd ones.

Hello Vine Community,

This is kind of an odd and silly one. If this happened with a paid order, I would've cancelled the order and ordered again.

I have two packages from Vine both worth over $500 coming from BC, Canada. They both have been going in circles where it moves from one city to the other then back to the original city. They've been rescheduled multiple times for delivery even though I'm in a different province. The last time there was movement on either of them was 4 days ago.

Has this happened to anyone before? Will they have to cancel my order? Or will they eventually turn up?

Wondering if big ticket items such as tv's, cameras, robot vacs, strollers, etc., only get offered in certain cities such as Toronto or Vancouver. I'm in Calgary and have never seen anything over $400 and nothing over $100 that's electronic. If you've gotten one of the high price items what city or province are you in?

I'll just sit here with my garbage

Ridiculous

Hey guys. I accidentally ordered a book light that I ordered a few days ago that appears to be the same but in a different colour. Is that a problem?
I know cancelling orders is a no-no, so what should I do about this mistake that I have made and does this put my account in jeopardy now? Thanks for any responses!

At exactly 11pm I refreshed and saw a bassinet. We desperately need on in the family. I clicked it as fast as humanly possible and gone.

This is getting ridiculous. Either companies are only offering 1 item or bots are snatching everything.

Ive been doing this for 3.5 years and when I started high value and useful items would sit in RFY for hours. There was never this issue.

My theory is;

1. too many viners

2. sellers provide only 1 or 2 products

3. bots bots and more bots!

This makes this no fun at all and does make me question the time I spend monitoring drops. I figure ill get my 80 reviews and then chill.

Thanks for reading my rant.
