I thought that maybe that removed it having spoken with you and gone over the issues that you had.
To do it without saying something is, however, shocking.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. This was my first (and only) order from BB so far. I wanted to get some input because they seem really well liked in the soap making community.
In fact, I have wondered why they have such a vast amount of oils at 1%-5% in their recipes. I'm starting to believe it's to sell more product, especially when a Soap Queen representative reveals their lack of knowledge about soap making.
It's their Energy FO. My customers love it and it sells so well in everything. I haven't found anything close yet. I keep looking though. Thank you!!
Daystar has a FO that is very similar (to my nose, anyhow) to Energy. It's called Paradise - maybe get a sample and give it a try?
BB has a few FOs that I like (and one that my teenaged daughter adores). What drives me crazy about them is when you order extra things to save on shipping costs and then the ONE THING you REALLY wanted is out of stock. They ship the order without telling you in advance about the OOS item and then refund the balance. Grrr.....

I you are a member of the Handcrafters Guild you can also file a complaint. We have filed a couple of complaints against them with the Guild. It is true that no place is perfect but some are getting more greedy and lacking in decent customer service. I have mentioned this many times WSP does Not have free shipping, it is figured into the price so every item you purchase has shipping costs attachedI would flat out ask why your review was removed and cite exactly which product you are speaking of. See what they say. I have gotten a response to everything I have ever asked and the times I have left a less than stellar review, I am contacted by a rep from the company to ask specifics and make suggestions. I have never had any other FO company do that.
I am close enough to them that the shipping costs have not been that high( I'm in WIsconsin). I think I paid $14 for an order that was almost entirely FO's that totaled $150. Considering they package in glass, which is very heavy, I don't find this bad at all and I like that I don't have to worry about warping bottles. I have had a couple of somewhat faded labels over time but that could be from low ink on the printer, and I think they print their own labels, given what I see when I ask for a sample of something that is not the sample of the month. I consider the turn-around time when I order and because for me they have good consistency, I'm fine with the wait. WSP has an element of controversy about it too, with their "free" shipping but if you track your orders over time, you can watch the skyrocketing prices. No place is perfect.
I think it would be better to contact them regarding the review and see what they have to say. If they don't respond or you post again and it is taken down again, easier to call foul play than to do so before you have even asked them what happened.

So did they reach out to you?I decided to ask BB if they ever remove reviews. Here is their response:

Thank you for emailing Bramble Berry.
First of all, thank you so much for your concern! We do not delete negative reviews, you can find them throughout our website. Just take a look at our Push Tube reviews!
We will delete a review if the review doesn't actually have to do with the product. For example, if the review is about shipping times, our company in general, customer service etc. We like to handle those issues more personally. If we do delete a review for these reasons we always reach out one on one with that person to solve whatever may be upsetting them!
Again, thank you. If you need anything else please let me know. Have a wonderful day!
