If it looks like this, I’m totally in.

You must have a very large tent

I wish. I can only make an average size tent.

In a hammock room is even more limited. If I hung my s2+ up it would basically be in my face. I pack light but I’m not from the school I have to weigh everything and throw something out over a few ounces.

Why not get an ALL IN ONE hammock/light ?

Wait a minute… Does she come with it?

I’m interested unless this is one of those deals where your refund via paypal after a review is posted.

Leaftye, it seems like one of those deals where the OP drive-by SPAMS the forum and never returns to answer questions. Then again, maybe he/she is in the dark side of the world and will return after we all go to bed to answer questions while we sleep. :person_facepalming:

It has to do with bias. The implication is that if you don’t post a positive review, you won’t get the refund.

Takes a while to do a decent review. There are meaningless but instant “Ooh, I love this X!! (Now gimme what you promised…)” reviews just to put out a “positive” review, or those where you actually use the X in question, but it takes a while.

I’d doubt anyone would refuse a PP refund until you put up the review. If you get tired of waiting, you can always return the thingy. And being in a sour mood, you might be tempted to post a negative review. That’s not nice, either, but it’s possible.

I don’t recall if I ever did one of those “refund-by-PP” review dealies. I was approached to do one, but didn’t have any PP account, had no idea how it’d work, etc., so I think that just fizzled out.

But even so, I’d be interested. I’ve pointed out both good and bad things in reviews, so I like to think I’m fair.

That does seem to be the implication. Unless it’s a very expensive light, in which case I can see they might want to ensure a proper review is done.

Well he mentions Amazon so I don’t think PayPal is involved it’s probably a 99 percent off code.

They definitely still do it. I was approached last week about it. They also wanted to see my Amazon review history first.

RobertB · 2018-04-25T00:22:11.000Z

I get offers to review almost daily. They almost all want you to buy at full price and get refunded via paypal. That way they don’t get caught by Amazon for fake reviews.

But then you don’t get “verified purchase” or whatever. Discounts and freebies don’t count.

Kinda sux when you get something as a gift and can’t “legitimately” review it.

lightdoctor · 2018-04-25T01:06:00.000Z

It is a camping light/ tent light. If you are interested, send me private message to get details.

Muto · 2018-04-25T01:08:17.000Z

I got your “tent” right here

Eff reviews, done with them, not worth the time and effort just to feel like a whore regardless if you are telling the truth.
Whole industry is a mess anymore.

I gave an honest review on a flashlight a week or so ago. I did point out the things I didnt like about it, but didnt dwell on them and make it personal. I made it fairly factual so it was informational and not a bunch of opinion and drivel.

The thought did cross my mind though, that if they didnt like it, there may not be a refund, but at the same time, a return also crossed my mind even though I probably would not have bothered.
