I bought an item a month ago. I gave it a one star review and complained directly to the manufacturer. They addressed my problem and took effort to make things right. After I was happy, they asked if I would update my review. I did.

This story makes me think Amazon reviews are more important than I had thought.

#Amazon #Review

@ThinkingSapien A company literally sued me over a bad Amazon review.

Yeah, they really are.

Note 1: Seller reviews on Amazon *cannot* be edited and once removed, they *cannot* be restored, or rewritten. So, all the sellers have to do is scare the buyer into taking it down, even "temporarily", and they're good forever.

Note 2: I reached out to Amazon about this multiple times. I figured they'd want to know that one of their sellers was gaming both the legal system and their review system to screw over their customers. I was wrong. They did not give a shit.
