Discontinued Product Reviews

not really into writing reviews, they're very very time consuming, I think eventually I'll sit down and write some though

I don't like to write reviews on items that have been discontinued since others who read my review and might want the product can no longer purchase it. On the other hand it has been brought to my attention that if there is enough new excitement generated about the product and it wasn't discontinued by the manufacturer it can be brought back into stock. Your review would help with that.
If you recieved a buyout or assignment for a now discontinued item I would think you must write the review regardless of whether or not it's available. After all you still got it for a discounted price or for free. You have an obligation to those at Eden who allowed you to review this product to keep your end of the bargain. Who knows maybe you'll generate some interest in the items return

Discontinued or not, if I can review it I will. And reviews should stay. We worked hard on them and just because Eden no longer sells the item does not mean it's not sold elsewhere and does not mean it won't return.

Have you ever gotten a free or buyout assignment only to discover that the product was discontinued before you could write up your review? In such a case, should you ... more
I own a couple discontinued items and did not write reviews for them.

Once, before I got to write my follow-up review the item was discontinued. I still wrote it and now the toy (Deep Water G) is again available on Eden.

I have never had an assignment to be discontinued before before I could write the review, but, I do NOT believe that the products should be visible on the website if they are discontinued because I am tempted and cannot buy it, but I think people should still be able to review discontinued items if that makes sense. I am less likely to review a discontinued unassigned item than a discontinued assigned item. I am also very much less likely to read, rate, and/or comment on reviews of discontinued items.
