Goodluck getting your hands on them!

Sounds pretty cool Jon. Good luck! Are you going to have a super-affiliate program? Maybe I could try to bring some guys in.
Also, instead of weekly payments or whatever...can we be payed in +rep?

If you want to take rep points instead of cash, be my guest.
If your pals can push volume, I'll hike them up on payout amounts. But I won't be giving it out until I see some proof.
I think I'll leave the rep for someone else, but what about a referral program? Is that in the works as well?
I would go post on the suggestion forum 5%-10% for referrals, but I'm too lazy. What do you think?

Sounds interesting...
Be careful with the weekly payouts. Some networks have been burned doing this. What are your chargeback/refund terms?
For instance, let's say you pay each Friday. On Thursday an affiliate has 10 friends sign-up. The next day the affiliate is paypal'd the commission. The same day each 10 customers can request a refund and you are out of the cash. With PayPal especially, it's extreamly difficult to reverse a transaction and takes ages.
On the flip side your refund policy may be that there are no refunds. That would solve that issue, but you may have a small percent of disgruntled consumers (which you can always except anyhow.)

Well that's it.. probably no refunds on the customer's end. Also, for affiliates we are probably going to set up some type of trust scale, where they must send X amount of sales before they qualify for weekly payouts.
On top of which, I already told my lawyer to draft the following into the T&C, that if any affiliate is caught spamming or scamming (fraudulent activity), their information will be posted on a public black list, and I'll be sharing that information with other networks. That should get them to rethink how worth it they think it is to scam me for $100 or so.
