Fake Glowing Reviews

Is there a cube farm in india where they crank these things out? Are employees at the local banjo mart encouraged to visit every review site they can find & type them up on all the products in their inventory in their down time?

When I go looking for reviews on a product & all i see are 10! 10! 10! 10!, *****!, greatest $15 guitar tuner ever!! i tend to move on to the next product in it's class because this review is obviously BS. It's insulting they think their target customers are that naive & these guys believe that spamming review sites will compensate for providing substandard products & services. If you are an employee & wanna review products you've played with, quit pretending you're a guy off the street. It just makes you, your store & your products look like a joke to anyone with half a brain.

This is an AMAZING thread. It's probably the best thread I've ever read. Before I read this thread, my music didn't have the kind of depth and three dimensonality that it has now. I rate this thread an 11! I absolutely recommend that everyone read it!!

Man, I was totally going to make that joke. You beat me to it. Can I moan about that since it's the moan zone?

Well I was told, "This is GearSlutz, man..."

There are many people (dealers) posing here I've concluded. Maybe the jokes on me? Check out my comment on vintage gear brokers on the "33609 or LA2A...."

my initial post was more of a reference to review sites like Harmony Central, or the handful of reviews that appear from supposed 'customers' on retail sites.

many of the dealers here have the decency to identify themselves as such & i appreciate that. take it with a grain of salt & what not.

the artificial inflation of gear prices as a social experiment in financial acquisition is a whole other level of greed ...i mean capitalism.
