Tested rating, only when we've ordered
When one of us places a real order, we record the box, the label, the statement line, how long it took and how support replied. Only then does a shop get a tested rating and a VERIFIED stamp. Everywhere else it says, plainly, that we haven't ordered yet.
Shops can't pay to move up. Sponsored placements carry a SPONSORED stamp and are ranked like everyone else.
