If telling him him about the way a site monetizes itself puts him off from buying from that site he buys from another site. He does not stop buying. Doing things to him that he wishes to avoid eventually stops him buying completely.

Yes I with you point about review sites having reviews by people not into buying or even understanding the niche and too often being a webmasters review. But all reviews are based on the opinion of the reviewer be it film, restaurant or what ever.

A review... is about a product or thing... If I'm selling the largest red apples ever, and you review them and simply taste them and say blah, these aren't the best... and you write how my apples just aren't as good as Joes Apples or how you like your Apples, that isn't a review - it's an opinion.

When you like something and you review it, you want others to taste it... even if the places is a shit hole, they said they had the best buggers and dammit, they do! P.S. Watch out they try up sell you Beer!


Selling the buyer what the site offers, sells more people.... because more people are willing to buy than you're giving them credit for, probably because your not selling them at all, most paysites don't.
