Yep Dave you must have pissed someone off again, i'm guessing.
A whole lot of garbage customer reviews.

I mentioned to someone to buy this muiltimeter and they mentioned its poor customer rating.

Cheers

From what source are these reviews ?, please provide a link or citation so that your statement may be verified. Amazon rates this meter at 4.7 with 55 reviews and Ebay rates it at 4.9 from 17 reviews so that's hardly a bad wrap, as an owner and somebody who has recommended this product to others I am interested to know.

Many thanks, it looks like someone is spamming that review page with advertisements for viagra or something, I have notified moderators accordingly so hopefully Dave can address the issue.

Yes it's spam not actual reviews, I think Dave needs to set that reviews can only be done by "verified owners" or some other sort of spam setting needs upping.

Even still, a user (lastwarrior) that seems quite displeased with its quality still gave 4 stars. Quite interesting.

Thanks.
I've had to disable reviews for now.

The (only?) 1 star review on Amazon is from none other than our old banned and serial stalking forum friend MojoChan!

The problem is I don't get people to create website account when buying something, they are all anonymous, as AFAIK, it's not easy to implement a legit review system in that case.

Yea, same with my shop, most check out as guests. I think you can force people to create accounts.
