Complete opposites of reviews?

These 2 are like complete opposites:

http://www.resellerratings.com/seller1723.html
http://ca.pricegrabber.com/rating_ge...r=285/m=477480

What do you think is going on?

There could be several reasons... here's a couple.
One possibility could be fraudulent reviews on pricegrabber.
Another one could be the fact that more informed people usually come to RR and more accurately review then entire transaction.

Many people come to RR to read reviews and to leave negative reviews only.
That seller is urging his cutomers to leave reviews on PriceGrabber.
But their reviews on other places don't look that rosy either.

Doesn't look precisely bad, either.

May not be bad, but there are probably better compaines to choose from.

We have a variety of policies in place, as well as automated and manual checks, to prevent fraudulent reviews and to block merchants from soliciting positive reviews from customers or non-customers. Other sites don't care as much about the quality of their reviews as we do.

That's simply not true. There are over 30,000 positive reviews across these merchants:
