On May 3, 2007 , the Bureau contacted the company regarding its claim of "Unlimited profits" for its client distributors on its website. The company advised the Bureau that they issue the difference payment from the suppliers' price and the customers' payment and that there is no limit on what a distributor can sell and therefore earn. Shopster did not supply a comparison pricing list or an example of typical earnings for reasons of privacy, but has agreed to modify the claim.
