Are their other benefits besides the free toys for upgrading from basic to advanced reviewer.
Basic to Advanced Reviewer

I didn't spend much time as a basic reviewer, so I guess I might not be much help. I believe that there are some special one time discounts for advanced reviewers. Also sometimes eden will ask advanced reviewers to be part of a project, like writing for the blog or whatever. I think there are more opportunities that I probably don't know about. Plus, the free toys are a biggie for me, I really love that part of it Just to give you an idea, there was a discount not so long ago that gave a discount based off of reviewer rank, and it was a nice discount that let me buy some more pricey toys I wouldn't have been able to afford otherwise. I think there are some very good points to being an advanced review. Hope that helps some I'd like to see other people answering this question too. Maybe some others would know of some other benefits

The program has changed so many times since I started reviewing that I'm really not sure what the current benefits are. I do know that it is possible to sometimes exceed the standard budget for toys, and sometimes Eden will honor special requests. Yes, there are special offers, and also special programs in which advanced reviewers might be offered the chance to participate. This might not be the "technical" description, but it has been my experience over time.

The essential difference between these two brackets is the free toys. We do offer occasional discounts, but usually make that available to everyone in the review program (as the most recent one was).

How are reviewers notified of the discounts available, I would be interested in those? I have also sent an e-mail to be reconsidered to upgrade my account from basic to advanced, at the time I requested an upgrade, I hadn't had an reviews posted on line but now I do. Could I be reconsidered?

In my experience, when there is a discount it is sent through email.

The last discount was made available I believe July the 2nd and was only redeemable for the next 3 weeks of receiving it. The discount was based on your rating.
Ive been a member on the site for only a short while now and I've received about 5 email discount notifications since then. So their pretty often.

Thanks. Maybe my rating isn't high enough yet, I would like to purchase some more toys, but would like to use any discounts available.

Anyone can sign up for the eden newsletter that contains coupons. I think these are sent out about once a month. There are also a couple of places on the site that you can click on to get a coupon like, if you click on vibrators and see all the categories and look toward the lower right were it says click here, you can click on it and it will show a coupon. I hope this helps!

You have to wait for the one on the site to load though. It's by the writing pencil......

How long does it take to start getting things? I was approved in May. Got one assignment, had it cancelled, and have been waiting very patiently for another one to be assigned...

I selected a product in May to review and is has yet to be approved. I have even sent an e-mail about it and I have not gotten any responce from that either.

Wow! I never noticed the pencil coupons before.

Just wondering if an upgrade to advanced is based on rating? I submitted my request and am just wondering how long it takes to find out? I can be patient, I'm just curious. Thanks. =)

I don't think so. My request was honored after only 3 reviews (though my rank wasn't too much lower than what it is now--they were using the old model at the time). I was surprised they approved my request, to be honest; I was such a newbie!

I don't think I'm an advanced reviewer. I don't even know how to find out, or whom I email to change it etc etc...

I thought advanced just meant you could do verified reviews. Am I having a dumb moment here?

Thanks! =) I was just wondering because my request for an upgrade has yet to be accepted and I figured it was because my rating isn't high enough yet.
