Seem like pretty thorough reviews of a lot of products. Makes me want some Held gloves even more after seeing their piece on it. Stupid expensive gloves.

It's called salesmanship. Take into account the source. It's not a "review", it's a sales pitch.

Well, yeah, but it's more thorough that a lot of what I'm finding elsewhere, in terms of detailed viewings into the look of the item, functions, how to use, whatever else.

Revzilla and Cycle Gear have some informative videos too. Take it as info with a grain of salt though. I like the info, but when it comes to reviews, I want to hear what customers who bought it and use it think.

Brian Van is awesome. He does a great job with the reviews, which I think goes on just marketing. He's also a really nice person.

so are you saying their quote "If we dont use it, we dont sell it." is false advertising?

Are YOU saying they use everything they sell? And how many times do they have to use it to claim they did? Once? I'm just sayin', as informative as they are, and they are, they're also marketing AKA SELLING. I'd rather get a review from you or Tammy or anyone else on this board that has actually used something a while than from one of those salesmen. That, I would call a "review". Which is really all I'm debating here is that they call them "reviews" when they're not. They're infomercials. And yes, the info has value, but it just shouldn't be referred to as a "review".
