It's like the damn bat signal.

Seriously, I didn't know NewEgg has an affiliate program. I buy all of our components through work with NewEgg plus my own home systems so I'd have generated a fair amount of revenue for them.

Libman was setting you up. You see, he's a resident troll, which means that while I hate him passionately and wish him great harm, he's ONE OF OURS. You are a pathetic interloper who will fade away in a few weeks at most.

Okay, I've applied.  It's a piddly 1-2% commission (though every affiliate program seems skimpy compared to Amazon), but if you guys are doing decent volume then it's worth it.

Covered on Nolan Chart, The Consumerist, Yahoo Tech, etc.

If they see a big sales jump as the result of this, maybe more retailers will see the benefit of siding with their customers over the government!

The margin on computer components is just too thin to support much more than that. Amazon even had to reduce their commission for electronics not too long ago.

Now I have a good excuse to go shopping at Newegg, which I've never used before.

Me either.  I'm thinking of upgrading my RAM in my computerbox, and getting another internal hard drive.  First I have to open the beast up and make sure there's a space for an extra hard drive.   :lol:
