ShopAndroid.com Removing Negative Reviews

[anon(534214)]

Just curious if anyone else has noticed that the Android Central store (ShopAndroid.com) is removing negative reviews. I noticed it on this product: https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ource=vb_ac&utm_medium=content&token=BV_qNLbC

It currently only shows 2 reviews. But Google's cache shows there were 4 reviews at one point. The two missing reviews were both 1-star reviews.

Here's a link to the cached page: Samsung Vehicle Navigation Mount for Samsung Galaxy Nexus / Verizon Galaxy Nexus - Android Car Mounts - ShopAndroid

What gives?

I asked customer service and the reviews were flagged after being reported by several visitors as unhelpful. After a manual review they will either be republished or removed (we sometimes get reviews with fowl language etc).

The rating on this product remained a 2/5.

While the product description made it clear this was just a dock and not a charging car mount, I will ask the merchant team if they can improve the categorization.

Weird. I don't even see buttons to flag each review as "helpful" or "unhelpful".
