A ring counts for Amazon when its buyer named the store; the store's channel (Amazon, eBay and other marketplaces) comes from its name rather than from each buyer's description. Prices are in US dollars and cover the ring as a whole. Verdicts count one line per buyer, and only buyers who bought or priced there themselves.
