Have You Ever Written Reviews On Amazon?

No. I don’t buy much but probably should sometimes. Amazon has also never asked to me to review a product so maybe doing it once would set them off each time I made a purchase.
 

Yes, I've written quite a few. Not only on Amazon, also on "Yelp" & "Google." Mostly positive, some negative.
When I have work done on my house, I always warn the company that I'll be posting a detailed & honest review. A few companies underestimated my writing ability & learned the hard way.
One roofing company tried to get an extra $3,000.00 (on a $30,000.00 job) by inflating how much wood they replaced; not realizing that I had a clear view of everything from my living room window & saw how much wood went up to the roof.
After I posted a review, the owner called me, demanding to know why I was "Trying to ruin his business." After I was finished laughing, I said, "YOU are ruining your business with your dishonesty & greed."
We negotiated a "settlement." He would refund me the disputed amount if I would delete my review.
Funny - he asked me "How do I know you will delete the review after the refund?"
I replied, "How did you know my check for the job would be good?"

I've asked my Congressman to change the law to require "Country of Origin" on all goods sold in the USA. So when shopping on Amazon they have to tell you up front where the item is made.

I like to know where something is from as well. Problem is, it gets complicated when components are made in different countries and it's up to the manufacturer to honestly report how much of the item originates in the US. The Federal Trade Commission has oversight, but I doubt they catch many of the misleading claims.

Complying with the Made in USA Standard

One thing upfront that I'll say about Answers I've received to my Questions on Amazon. If the person doesn't know what's in the query, then they shouldn't reply.

Explaining: I suffer from Nickel allergy. Therefore, I was asking if it was pure silver or a blend possibly containing Nickel. The response was: The ring is very nice and highly polished...

So, as you can see still no true or worth it answer. Therefore, I haven't bought the ring yet and that's wee bit frustrating.

To answer current question, yes, I've written quite a lot, they've been deemed useful many times and appreciated. I've been with Amazon since 2007, so I occasionally go back to add a review as it'll be either more positive or negative as the items have received good use😸.

I really put a negative review as a result of having had a bad delivery experience and/or products which didn't last and became defective and had to be returned.

So far in over 15 years, one item wasn't according to product description and was returned, but reimbursement never came back. Darn it!

Second item had a delivery company which mobile provider put into SPAM Alert, as they kept going to wrong street, one down from ours, and we're demanding nearly triple the delivery cost originally. In the end it got cancelled and was reimbursed.

The third one took nearly a month to be delivered when it was guaranteed 3 days, and within a month the product failed. The help from Amazon was amazing and the reimbursement so quick that I was able to replace the product locally.

The over 25+ reviews have been positive and if it helps someone understand how to use it to prevent damages as one set of glass cups, then I'm glad it was useful 😸.

I agree. I wonder WTH people are thinking when they do that.

I will be writing a review of my most recent purchase. Not happy. I ordered 5 boxes of Lindor chocolates to give as thank you gifts. Three of the boxes were damaged so not something you want to give as a gift. The packing box had no damage so obviously the damage was done at the warehouse and shipped anyway.

OMG, you just don't do that with Lindors! (per Michelle, just now)
