If you've been kicked off Amazon reviews for reviewing products, you've got lots of company.

Amazon has been blocking people from reviewing products for nebulous reasons. This is interesting. I've gotten some stuff off Amazon and reviewed products, but I'll be damn if I ever will in the future! If you've ever reviewed something on Amazon, you might well find all of your reviews gone and yourself blocked from reviewing anything in the future and NO explanation. WTF, weird.

1. This happened to me. One of their 3rd parties ripped me off

Amazon finally refunded me after I went through 4 rounds of A to Z guarantee rejections. Of course I ripped into the seller. A day later, my review was gone. I haven’t bought anything from them since. I don’t know when/if I will.

2. It's strange. They kicked me off. I've been using them since they first went online. I've never

had any issues with them or any sellers. I've returned a few items, but no real issues. They removed all of my reviews back years and years. And then just out of the blue they kicked me off as a reviewer. If I try to do a review now, I get some stupid message basically saying I'm in collusion with the Seller. WTF! I'll never do a review again, and now I will first look for other places than Amazon to buy products. The Sellers are going through hell with this.

3. I guess the moral of the story is, never leave positive reviews on Amazon?

4. What I find annoying is that Amazon is always e-mailing me TO review products.

Really - sometimes I just want to buy something without rating or reviewing it. For example, I recently bought some USB wall charger plugs and some grounding adapter plugs to go from 3-prongs to 2-prongs...pretty mundane and basic stuff, and not much to be said about them. Three "reminder" e-mails later, I finally gave a generic review just to get them off my back.

Considering the number of items I buy through Amazon, I wish they WOULD kick me off Amazon reviews!

5. That's what I got too. Endless reminders / requests to review products / rate sellers. So, like

a good little guy I do it, thinking it's helpful. My reward, they F'en kick me off their reviews and treat me like some kind of criminal. They're getting too big for their britches. There are lots of other places to shop online.

7. Off topic a bit but I read an article about amazon kicking people out

for returning too many items. Can’t buy anything.
This got me scared!!!
I’ve been returning a lot of stuff lately, mostly clothing and shoes. Now I’m afraid to buy these types of items.

9. I would never buy anything expensive from them again. There are too many other

options. By canceling my reviews I'm probably in their untrustworthy group. I just can't imagine returning (for me) anything to them now. There are just way too many other places to get items, and often with free shipping. And often Amazon's prices are not the cheapest.

8. Avoid Amazon!

Before you shop with Amazon, check out these news stories and think twice whether or not your want your money going to these guys:

Vote with your wallet, shop anywhere else!

10. Thanks for this summary! There are way more options for shopping than Amazon.

Good articles!!! I've heard about this, but not summarized so well.

11. The complaints about Amazon are endless. Here is a Twitter feed.

I had no idea Amazon has changed so much. I started using them went they first went online.

12. Space Toys

Yeah, and don't get me started on Jeff Bezos' building a space dildo ... my wife couldn't believe just how phallic this joy-ride-to-space-for-the-1% is:
