If Etsy let people come back and change reviews without a time limit, it could get crazy, so the 100 days applies to everything as far as locking the review in.

- The 100 days doesn’t stop when a customer opens a case, so if you do that right at the end of the review period and the time elapses before the case is resolved, you might not be able to review your purchase.
- The other thing that could happen is that you checked out as a guest, and then you want to leave a review but you can’t.
- In order to leave a review for that item, you can register an account with Etsy, then claim the order to have it linked to your new account.
