Feedback Amazon uk Vine invitation question?

[2DSGamerdude]

Hi all,
um a couple of weeks ago
i recived an email from amazon uk saying that they
have invited me to join the amazon vine program for writing helpful reviews

whay im not sure about this is, if amazon vine is free 100%,
cause the email said that you become a vine reviewer and they sned you products that you choose for a list of
sellers who have enrolled their products into vine?

that last couple of products i had bought off amazon uk i had left a review for just cause i felt like giving good feedback on the product/s.
i had no idea that amazon vine was even a thing then.

or you pick the product you want and they send you a free copy for review?

Im not 100% sure if i should join or not?

cause i read somewhere that amazon vine reviewers get the product that is new or unreleased sent to them for free and that after 6 months
they have to pay a tax fee for it?

that was for amazon us, not sure about uk tho?

also, amazon vine invite is a invited invitation only, they have to invite you to join, you can't ask to
get into vine,

so i not sure if i should join this program or pass it?

tho, if you could get free new switch games for writing helpful reviews that'd be nice,

but im not sure if this free products for reviews is 100% true or not?

thanx

It's legitimate. Free. You keep the products you order. It's all very clear. I joined about 2 months ago. Had 4 free items. The last item, delivered today, has a retail value of £139. Yes sounds to y good to be true but in this occasion it is true.

It's genuine.

However, reading reviews of bought reviewers are possibly biased so they tend to have less credibility. Think of like game/movie critics and their credibility.

yeah, i "had" my doubts, but after reading these comments and checking out the amazon vine reviwer aggreement, i decied to accpet the invite, now im in.

also, is the Tax thing a amazon vine reviwer only thing?
or is it only from a certain price upwards?

so, you don't have to pay any tax for any vine item(s) products you select from the page?

also, um why is the "reccomened for you" tab empty?
i checked out the "all items" & "Avalable to all", but i didn't find sometinhg that i really want yet,

i hope in the fture they ad some switch games to this vine items catalogue page.

what items did you get from this vine program for example?

switch games or console(s) for example or stuff that is tax free?
cause the ittems on the uk vine items show on tax on their details page?

thanx for the tips, and i'll keep checking the vine items page for good stuff it show up,
not sure when/how they are updated.
