I had a bad experience with a "web services" merchant who was paying me way below the merchant's same offer on a major affiliate network.
Boy, that was certainly a rude awakening.
I was upset enough to blog about it, though my focus is on the
trust between merchant, affiliate network and affiliate, rather than naming and shaming the merchant.
If you'd like take a look at the post, and more importantly weigh in with your opinion, I'll gladly publish all on-topic comments.
