What is the difference between Seller Feedback and Product Review?

How to Remove Negative Product Review on Amazon

 

Seller Feedback is a seller “report card” from Amazon customers about their buying experience. A Product Review is the review of the items purchased, and should not be about the seller or the purchasing experience.

 

It ‘s very difficult to convince Amazon to remove negative product reviews. Even when it is blatantly in a customer’s best interest to remove said product review. Sometimes fake reviews come in the form of negative 1-3 star reviews. You should aim to have squeaky clean product reviews. That can be achieved by getting negative product reviews removed through claims that the reviews break Amazon’s terms and conditions. To do this successfully, you should quote Amazon’s own rules when asking to remove a review.

 

 

Figure out which of the responses below would make the most sense, then file a ticket by selecting Selling on Amazon issue > Products and inventory > Product Reviews. Provide the all details and properly describe the issue by mentioning the correct section in their Terms and Conditions. You will have around 1-20% chance of getting a removal, and it will almost always take 3 follow-ups on the ticket. But it will surely be worth all the effort.

 

At the most, you might have a 20% chance of getting a removal, and it will almost always take 3 follow-ups on the ticket. But it will surely be worth all the effort.
