    What's the problem with that? Amazon obvioulsy only wants people who have actually purchased the product to write a review. Seems more than reasonable to me...

    I think you're confusing seo with spamming;)

    not spamming, you can offer some value info without purchasing.

    I disagree. If I'm reading a review I want it to be from someone who owns the product...not someone who used it once 6 months ago when their friend who owns it stopped by.

    yes, owner is good. but i need not to buy from amazon, i buy it from shop or got it from firend. most of your goods are not bought from amazon,but you still have right to review.

    Not really. Amazon reviews are community based and from trusted buyers & sellers which gives amazon more trust.
