Eich I can not see that review, one slight difference to your screenshot my one shows after the title [DVD] and there are a number of other reviews most are 5 star.

As you say, most reviews are fine (except the weird ones from people complaining that they'd ordered the wrong thing and couldn't send it back )

But as I recall I had to log in to Amazon to read further reviews, and there was just this one... hidden away. Well I just logged on again to look for it and what do you know... it's not there anymore! Good thing I took that screenshot

I've got the URL on my uncropped screenie so I'm going to type the whole thing in (can't copy & paste because it's just a picture) to see what comes up that way

I've learned to take low Amazon reviews with a grain of salt. The cheaper the item, the more people enjoy complaining about it.



As an example, suppose someone could write a review for a surprise birthday party on Amazon:

*- It seemed like a good idea when my friends jumped out of a closet but it gave me PTSD. The presents could have been better and the cake had an odd taste to it. Then rats jumped out of one of the gift boxes and bit me.

One thing I learned from reading Amazon reviews- there are a LOT of Screw Ups walking the planet.

Amazon could sell a single sheet of white paper and someone would complain that the instructions were too confusing, or there wasn't enough packaging, or it was the wrong shade of white, or it burst into flame when they tried to use it to repair their flame thrower.
