... Why is it when someone clicks on our referral link it takes them to a goozex search that looks just like one of those fake free ipod sites.

 It looks horrible, if thats the first thing I saw when I checked goozex out for the first time I wouldn't be here. And the search doesn't even work. I suggest that page disappears and never comes back.

A bit of an updated one wouldn't be too bad. That one does look a little fishy.

That's the first time I have ever seen the page. I remember before where it just went to a form for the referral to fill out.

Not all those "Free Ipod" sites are fake. I got my PSP, DS, and a 1GB Pro Duo card for free through sites like that.

There's no question that they're legitimate.  The issue is that you would have spent less money to just buy the widget yourself instead of signing up for hundreds of subscriptions and services.  No haggling on the phone to cancel those subscriptions immediately, either.

Nope. Didn't spend a dime on any of those sites. There used to be tons of tricks and loopholes in the offer sites to make them trigger a completion without actually completing them legitimately.

Unfortunately, that IS the new updated one.

I agree, the referral link should be different.

The great question is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with failure.

Don't be content with this new referral page

I talked to the G-Team this morning. They are aware of this thread and the fact that the search box does not work. Keep us updated. :)

Is it just me or does "Goozex is pure video game trading" sound a bit...off.

Reminds me of a bad japanese to english translation.
