Aww, why do they never try to bribe me? :-(
Me neither. I've never had a freebie either.
Probably a combination of what you buy and how often you buy things. I've been offered bribes for reviews at least a dozen times. Never taken them because they weren't worth the effort (offering gift cards for small amounts or a discount on other stiluff from them). It''s always chinese vendors and usually stuff like torches and bike accessories that are fairly generic in my experience
