Here's the thing, there's all sorts of ways a shaving routine could work.. At least one has been mentioned already.. Some more that come to mind

1 - If the trial cancels the first day, shave it. (Sales show up in a block later, cancelled first day trials don't) Some programs would consider this perfectly ethical. Solution - don't cancel the trial in the first day as a rule.

2 - First X amount of sales or days the shave is off, this it to get the "wow, what a great sponsor!" factor going.. I know at least 2 sponsors (big ones) that work this way. No proof of course, except that making a new account and changing your links "magically" brings your conversion ratio back up.

3 - Only shave high volume accounts.. If you're making 50 signups plus a day, what's 5 shaved? Most webmasters would never be able to notice with that volume of traffic.

I guess what I'm saying is, this trial will probably only catch the really dumb-ass shavers.. Which is better than nothing.

Cheers,
Backov
