When is a sale not a sale?

When is a sale not a sale?

Could I get some feedback from anyone with experience regarding ClickBank and other affiliates, please?

I have received the following comment on one of my product reviews.

"I have experienced positive outcomes since beginning my listening. Thank you for all the help you have given." I take this comment to mean that the guy purchased an audio product through my site and is happy he did.

The review is only a month old and is reviewing a product that is handled by ClickBank. When I go to my Clickbank account, it shows that there is one order form impression and two order forms submit on the same day..... but no sale. Two options exist:

1) Maybe the guy didn't purchase the product from me (so why is he thanking me?)

2) ClickBank hasn't credited me for the sale. Is this possible?

It makes me wonder what is happening because I have 8 product reviews on my site, half of them on page one of Google, and no 'confirmed' sales yet.

I would love to hear your thoughts or experiences.

Many thanks,

Andrew
