Default Yes, I think so.

As far as I see it there are a limited number of Clickbank merchants so, unlike other products that promote to a wider audience, there is a finite amount of sales to be acquired. And if every sale is an affiliate sale (why wouldn't it be?) that means that on every single sale I'm only getting 50% revenue (50% affiliate payout, obviously).

The only other way around it that I can see is to bump up the price by the amount of the commission, thereby offsetting this practise. I don't really want to do this though, since it puts the price up at first glance. Most customers will realize that they won't actually be paying this price, but it still doesn't look as good. You see?
