How believable of review would it be if he was glowing about it without trying it? Is it any different than the bad; granted the review ratings will have impact on recommend products that amazon.com will do and people do see the overall. |
As a consumer, I would hope that all reviewers, good or bad, had actually tried the product. As a manufacturer I would hope that all
bad reviewers had actually tried the product. I will trust that all the good reviews come from ethical, intelligent, beautiful people.
Right now, since we only have a couple of reviews, each review has a fairly significant impact to the overall rating (we dropped from 4.5 to 3.5 stars because of that one review). I'm confident that we'll eventually accumulate enough positive reviews to overcome the few I've-never-actually-used-this-product-but-it-is-teh-suck reviews. Until we do, though, this is irritating.
