We were right … Next didn’t deserve it.

I think a lot of people were shocked when Next won the award for Best New Merchant at the Expo in October, James Little started a thread on it on the forum. Now after all the reductions in commissions and not only what happened yesterday, but also their zero communication by email or on the forum I feel the right thing to do would be to revoke the award, they are not worthy of it.

Seriously, what do Next bring to the affiliate space - apart from demands and hassle? Do we need it or them?
