The way I do it is not to read any reviews or comments until about 6 months later. I have no pressing need to buy produx-x before that. I could also wait years, depending on what it is. Video games for example work well with this, because who cares if you play something 10 years after it comes out? It'll be a fraction of the price, and you'll know for certain if you want it or not.
