Default Product Reviews. WTF is wrong with them?!!

eBay pages say buyers are more likely to buy products that have reviews attached to them. As a result, one could conclude that listings with reviews would be placed better, right?!


Anyway, in the world of eBay's ambiguity, one couldn't help but wonder, how the f to make these reviews appear on listings


I tried changing the UPN, EAN, Photo sizes, title or even the product's description, but nothing seems to work.


I find this way more than disturbing to be honest. Sometimes I have to take a hit in sales because of someone's else product's reviews. Other times the d**n reviews won't show up no matter what



What do you do normally in this regard? Any advice would be appreciated!

Click "sell similar" on another seller's listing who is already showing reviews. Problem solved.

I tried this a ton of times, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.


I have suspicion that listings with reviews will get ranked higher in search automatically and bring more sales.


Any thoughts from previous experience on this?

I do agree, these product reviews are sometimes a problem for sales.

I know for a fact it deters some buyers because I have actually received PM's from potential buyers concerned about some "review" they read at the bottom of my listings. For me, I feel it has hurt my sales in some categories.

I have yet to find a way to reliably turn them off as walkingupwards has indicated above.

My point is, do listings that have product reviews attached to them get placed better in search results?

I noticed that if a listing has no reviews appearing on it, it will get stuck and won't go up as quickly.
