I agree. I often wondered if they recommended pricier products before, because some things I bought were expensive. However, when they just were through amazon, they didn't have to have conversations with the company to get a commission. What happens if they test something and it's great, and the company making the great product refuses to give them a commission? If something is a good deal for them, will they not update the review, because the affiliate setup is making a lot of money and they don't want to adjust it? What happens if they don't like the affiliate system the company's website uses, because it doesn't track cookies well enough? Do they have to call the company after the test and have them setup a specific affiliate system? It just seems like a terrible idea and there all these conflicts when they are negotiating a side deal with the company they review vs just collecting a consistent cut from a large marketplace like amazon.
