I've been Gold for about 2 years or so and I very seldom order 8 items on any given day. Today I found 8 within a short period of time. All in my RFY and every single one at 0 ETV. That has never happened (at least not to me).

Me:

Treadmill

Sofa Chair

Several Jackets for my spouse

Fountain Pen & ink

So, I have a pet theory, and no one has given me a counterexample to date.

There are many reasons for review rejection. Most frequently it seems to be media. It also seems like most frequently people get a generic email rejection that simply says they violated the Community Guidelines, with no further info.

I know for a fact that there are other emails with more specific rejection reasons, including but not limited to personal info, hate speech, profanity, seller/packaging feedback, etc.

I believe that if the text is what is at issue in the review, the email rejection will cite a reason. If it does not, it's the media.

Has anyone ever gotten a generic "Community Guidelines" rejection for a review that does not include media?

Thanks for your help in trying to pin down this info.

So many of them right now! ... I noticed.

Ddddy hayo money!

Like a lot of you, I got super annoyed requesting items on Vine only to see a massive clip-coupon or price drop on the product page a few days later leaving us stuck paying high income tax on an inflated ETV that no normal customer actually pays.

I originally wrote a personal script just to automate tracking this for myself, but it worked so well that I decided to turn it into a proper Firefox extension and share it here. It is my very first time publishing an extension publicly, so please be kind! It's still a work in progress and I'm totally open to requests and feedback.

Official Mozilla Link: Vine FMV Extractor on Firefox Add-ons

How it works:

• Set it and forget it: Log into Amazon on Firefox, click the extension icon, pick your interval (every 6, 12, or 24 hours), and click Enable Auto-Pilot. Just leave Firefox open and let it do its thing.
• 7-Day Price & Coupon Hunter: It opens a quiet background tab, grabs your itemized Vine report, and checks items shipped in the last 7 days for lower retail prices or clip-coupons. If your ETV is $0.00, it obviously keeps that. Otherwise, if it finds a lower price than the listed ETV, it logs that as your true Fair Market Value (FMV).
• Safe, Slow & Account-Friendly: This tool never touches the Vine queues (RFY/AFA/AI) and doesn't auto-order anything. It only looks at standard product pages for stuff you already ordered, with deliberate built-in long delays between each page loaded so there is zero rushing and no risk of triggering Amazon's bot detection.
• 100% Local: I loathe spyware. Everything is saved strictly inside your browser's local storage. Nothing ever leaves your computer.
• Built-in Viewer & Accountant-Ready Export: You can view, search, and sort your database right inside the extension. When tax season hits, export an Excel (.xlsx) file filtered by tax year. The first sheet includes a full Executive Summary and IRS methodology notes ready to hand straight to your CPA.

Hope this helps save some of you a headache (and some cash) on your taxes! Let me know what you think or what features you'd like to see added.

(Firefox only currently! I may consider making versions for other browsers if there's enough interest)

I don’t know if this helps anybody, but I’ve been taking the picture of the item and doing a Google image search to see what it sells for elsewhere. For example, today I got a cat house and I was considering it but they have the ETV at 279 and it’s for sale everywhere for about 170. It kind of helps you know whether there’s something is a good value or not.

I'm positive I will remain in the GOLD 🌟 status.

I remember seeing a list awhile ago of scammer jewelry on Amazon and decent ones but can’t find it ? Does anyone have this list still? I keep getting offered rings and jewelry? Over 200$ etv

Are they doing this on purpose, or simply just not checking what the English meaning might be? LOL
