The Bottom Line Reveal it! I'm confident that my opinions are worth a good or bad rating. We are here to help each other and mostly to help the consumer!

I am brand new to this. But I do feel this is a needed tool and source for deciding on products.

Our ratings are important because our opinion counts!

Epinions is one of the greatest marketing tools I've ever heard of. I feel confident that if I buy and like a product, the world oughtta know how I feel. And other people's opinions and ratings of my review/opinion on a product is important.

Think of it this way... You go to a store and find an RCA 25" Color TV Set. You ask a clerk if it's a good one and if you should buy it... The obvious thing that will take place is they will either say Yes or they will direct you to an even more expensive TV and say... "This is the one you want".

In either scenerio, you just got the "Pitch"! All you are hearing is the information the clerk is paid to tell you. That's how the manufacturor makes their money by selling you their products.

Well... Here at Epinions you get the best advertising that exists to this day... "WORD OF MOUTH"!!!! If a friend or neighbor of mine purchases a new lawn mower and I see it in use and like it and want to go get the same one... The advertising was already done for the product right there in front of my face.

I hate going to a Car lot and being followed around by a annoying car salesman... However, if I see somebody driving a nice car or I hear through the "Grapevine" that such-n-such is a good brand of car... that will strike my interest beforew an ad!

All in all... Epinions is an excellent word of mouth report from the best salesman & advertising agency alive... "THE CONSUMER". You will never hear a paid pitch! You will never be forced or scammed into buying a product you don't want to.

So rate me and let me rate you back! Let's all help each other decide what we want to buy in this pressure sale filled economy!!!
