Commission only sales sites?

Do (m)any sites do this?

I realise this is a bit of a long shot but is anyone aware of any UK sites that allow merchants to sell on a commission only basis?

Edirectory does but you have to pay the setup fee.

Any others?

Thanks

Just to clear up a possible confusion over this, I am looking for sites that let me sell my products (jewellery) and I only pay them a commission on sales. A bit like Ebay without the listing fees, only final value fees.

Thanks

Are you looking for affiliate programs within the UK?

If they are not too steep on the monthly charges and (of course) deliver results!

Okay, I wasn't sure what you were looking for, do you know of UK affiliate programs?, if not I can sticky you one or two.

In terms of commission only, I would think that affiliate programs would be your best bet because of the audit and tracking systems.

I have found a few UK Affiliate sites recently. I was thinking of affiliatefuture as the first place to start.

Any other suggestions (low start-up / monthly fees please). As an aside I sell through one site that charges no set up fee and only a commission on the goods that I sell. Also you have to be approved by them first in order to start selling so you don't end up like Ebay where everyone is cutting margins just to make sales and the only winner is Ebay.

Thanks

Thanks hidesmith, it's not my market. I am aware of affiliates programs here in the UK and didn't know how much you were involved etc. It looks like we were both trying to help each other ... that's what its all about:)
