Well Shoebuy.com is a supporter of the Onecause Parasite Toolbar Scam!It is no surprise at all really, as many of the big name companies that provide an array of goods, have joined forces with those scumbags Onecause!Many of the affiliates I know, are convinced that the merchants are unaware of Onecauses stealing activities.While I may agree that some do, most absolutely understand exactly what’s going on.In this case, Shoebuy.com knows exactly what is going down.If your an affiliate of Shoebuy.com and your part of Commission Junction, your affiliate commission for promoting Shoebuy.com, you make 17% on every sale that originates from your site.However, if a visitor to your site has the Onecause toolbar, and clicks on a pair of shoes from your site. your affiliate ID is overwritten by Onecause and they get the commission.But guess what?….it’s not 17%…..it’s allot less then that…..It’s more like 8.50%.It’s easy to see why these Companies approve of Onecauses Parasite activities, as they save money bigtime, and could careless about the affiliates that have worked very hard to promote them.
It would seem that this company has everybody fooled!BizRate and Hitwise need to wakeup and learn the truth about this Parasite supporter!
“Shoebuy.com was awarded BizRate’s “Circle of Excellence” Platinum Award for outstanding service six years in a row, rated by Hitwise as one of the Internet’s Top Ten most visited apparel and accessory shopping and classified sites, and the #1 retailer in the country for fulfilment.”
In Shoebuy.com affiliate terms they have the gall to say this!
“* NOTE: Shoebuy does not pay commission on sales from sites posting unapproved codes or other unauthorized promotions.”

In the end I have decided to pull all of my Shoebuy.com links, as I don’t feel like getting screwed!It’s obvious that Shoebuy.com is as bad as the affiliate parasite Onecause!I’m sorry to say that Shoebuy.com are nothing but thieves as well….if the shoe fits, you must wear it Shoebuy.com!
