    Deceptive puts an affiliate link instead of just a normal link.

    This is a normal link ===> https://www.pluginboutique.com/deals without his affiliate ID "?a_aid=5d08a894507cb"

    This is pure affiliate link spamming and claiming "i don't deserve anything from it" is bullshit.
    You do...

    Let's not make this site another affiliate marketing crap site.
    If there is any site that should be an affiliate it would be Audiosex self, not useraccounts that spams the forums with this kind of crap.

    Correct, but this is not against any rule we know of, so it's ok.

    Let's say I buy my plugins from the affiliate link instead of the official link: @Deceptive would you be willing to split your earnings 50/50?

    How much do affiliates make that way anyway? Must be pennies if I'm not mistaken?

    you just have to understand the logic behind it .... if such sites did not exist , where could we have found out about news and offers ? ...the sides have costs and effort and this must be financed ... the mentality of always taking and not giving anything back is stupid and dangerous at the same time ......


    Just for your information, I don't earn ANYTHING from it ... I'm also not in a difficult financial situation that I would have to deal with cents.
    I only do this out of passion

    I bought the RC-20 today morning, because i found out that it is offered for 80 % cheaper ...... and i have absolutely no problem giving something away to the site from which i got this news .

    I've realized that plugin boutique has endless deals tho lol... Nothing really special about these in particular. If you check back in a month it might be marketed with a different label but there will always be deals there. There are a few sites that operate like this, PB is probably the most popular tho.

    I do like PB and own a lot of stuff there, but most of these sales are the same stuff, yup (and they'll typically be deals that are available on other sites). A few things I hadn't seen before though, and I decided to buy another Cherry Audio synth (love these), but went to Cherry Audio's page to buy it.

    half of these are marketed as sales when in fact they went *up* in price. Ujam Usynth for instance was $99 pre order as of 2 days ago. Now its $119 as a sale lmao

    Same with Softtube dirty tape. Free a week ago, $35 today as a sale. Tbh ive rarely seen good deals come up on PB- the only being RC20 at 80% off.

    I've bought various small bundles there which I've never seen again at this price (not even at PB itself).

    All this bitching here... lol

    The RC-20 sale is a really good offer, thanks. We need people who bring news like that. And it's not spamming, because it's helpful.

    If you fall for an affiliate link it's your own fault, he didn't even try to obsfucate it with bit.ly, I hereby declare the defendant to be NOT GUILTY

    Edit: I mean it's not even a loss for you if you buy via clicking on it, this is just a big time waste to begin with :d

    Before I buy anything I use a price search engine.
