Amy, did you happen to come up with anything for this??? Thanks!

Not yet. Some symbols need to be parsed out in the middle, and I haven't had time to tinker with it just yet.

It seems this is against the CJ TOS...We've been doing it for months on my site, and we received a warning that we need to stop in 7 days .. That policy is utterly ridicoulous...:(
Email Received: "It is a violation of the Commission Junction Publisher Service Agreement to include Commission Junction tracking links within a Message Board post/thread. You need to remove all such posts/threads by 1/17/2005." TOS Snippet: 2.2 Use of Links to Advertisers. You may not place Links to an Advertiser's Web site or Web site content in newsgroups, message boards, unsolicited email and other types of spam, banner networks, counters, chatrooms, guestbooks, IRC channels or through similar Internet resources. You must place Links to the Advertiser's Web site or Web site content such that it is unlikely that the Links will mislead the Visitor, and such that it is reasonably likely that the Links will deliver bona fide Transactions by the Visitor to Advertiser from the Link. None of Your promotional activities may infringe an Advertiser's intellectual property rights (including but not limited to trademark rights), intellectual property rights of a competitor of an Advertiser, or CJ's intellectual property rights. |
In other words, they don't want to pay commissions for traffic that will get to them anyway. I think the appropriate response is to just ban those urls altogether. Ebay pays so little commission and keep looking for ways to minimize how much they pay even more.

They only pay if someone bids on an item so I don't see why it matters to them how someone got to them. It's not like they are paying every time someone clicks a link, they only pay if someone bids.

Greed. They are very rich and very greedy. Why can't they let the little guy feed his beak?

While somewhat off-topic I just got notice the eBay fees are going up. Guess it's time to close my eBay store.
Closing Price $0.01 Old Price $25 5.25% of the closing value New Price 8% of the closing price Closing Price $25.01 - $1,000 Old Price 5.25% of the initial $25, plus 2.75% of the remaining closing value balance. New Price 8% of the initial $25, plus 5% of the remaining closing value balance ($25.01 - $1000) Closing Price Over $1,000 Old Price 5.25% of the initial $25, plus 2.75% of the next $25.01-$1000, plus 1.50% of the remaining closing value balance ($1,000.01 - closing value). New Price 8% of the initial $25, plus 5% of the next $25.01 - $1000, plus 3% of the remaining closing value balance ($1,000.01 - closing value). |
Outrageous.

I used to own eBay stock. Maybe I shouldn't have sold so soon.
