I don't but for the reason you stated I do not see a big deal of it.

I copy/paste but then edit it so it looks different. So I guess it's... not exactly copying? I do like to have things in the same order every time, just with different wording.

I never copy and paste from other peoples reviews, but I've used similar wording on products from the same company that I've reviewed back to back such as how they charge their product if it's a rechargeable toy.

What about lingerie and keeping your measurements handy? I don't see how that's dishonest because unless I gain 30#'s I'm going to be a size small, and weigh the same, same height, same undies, etc.

If you've taken the time to find the perfect way to describe something the first time, then there's no sense in rewording it to an inferior version, just for the sake of being different.

I usually do this with when I talk about how to care for a product. Now that I have read what JR said I won't be doing this anymore. Thanks for this post!

I haven't done it (since I've only written two reviews), but I really don't see a reason why such a thing would be bad.

I think that with some reviews, its ok. When you have a few toys you're reviewing that might be all pretty well the same (require the same lubes/cleaning methods and what not) then its fine. I am going to start doing this, because its way easier and faster to do. Plus, I find that sometimes I am writing a review and it comes out great and I am thorough and then I go to write another review and I miss some basics that should be included or doesn't come out as well written. So, I think Im going to do a few of the general parts for the "Cleaning/Lube use" and then just keep the other stuff unique.
