Thats a great reason.

It's fairly common to see referers from other sites in yours for sale as Fabian pointed out. The first affilaite sends a hit, the referer gets recorded and surfer is cookied. Then the second affiliate can send the same surfer where no referer is present for some reason and the sale will be credited to the most recent affiliate to send the surfer (commonly agreed upon) but the only referer info is from the first hit and it is shown. That's not miscredited sales.

Again tho, thats a great reason to not report a problem. This industry really gets me some times.
