Does ReviewMe take 50% of the $400 review price? Then I really don't understand why John Chow isn't selling reviews directly from his blog. More control and money should be reason enough. As for the couple of negative reviews he has done, I don't think he should have agreed to the second one. The first one was blatant copyright infringement, and to take the $400 for a negative review was only right. The second time, however, I don't think the review was beneficial to anyone. Of course it is difficult to disagree with an easy $400, but the review may cause him to actually lose potential review offers in the future. $200? Does ReviewMe take 50% of the $400 review price?

He chose to review Andrew Talk's site and I think most people would if they were getting $200 out of the deal. The payment only goes through once you choose to accept the offer.

Otherwise he wouldn't have reviewed Andrew Talk's cluster f-ck. I was under the impression that the reviews were pre-paid. Otherwise he wouldn’t have reviewed Andrew Talk’s cluster f-ck.

He always has the choice whether to review them or not. How would stopping using ReviewMe give John more control over who he reviews? He always has the choice whether to review them or not.
