Hi Shawn,

It seems to me that there's no way of knowing if the buyer is taking the money away from you or from a genuine affiliate. For example, if the customer found out about your web site through an affiliate, then he's taking that 50% away from an affiliate - not from you.

I agree with everyone else here - just take it in stride. I think you're probably not "losing" as much as you think you are....
