Affiliate Disclosure
Last Updated: April 15, 2025
FTC Disclosure Compliance
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising, we want to be completely transparent about our relationships with various affiliate programs and how we make money through our website.
What Are Affiliate Links?
Some of the links on Curated Retro Finds are "affiliate links." This means that if you click on the link and purchase the item, we will receive an affiliate commission. This is one way that we are able to fund the research, writing, and maintenance of this website.
Our Affiliate Relationships
Curated Retro Finds is a participant in the following affiliate programs:
- Amazon Associates Program - As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
- eBay Partner Network - We earn commissions when you purchase items through our eBay links.
- Etsy Affiliate Program - We receive compensation for purchases made through our Etsy links.
- Other Retailer Programs - We may also participate in affiliate programs with other retailers and marketplaces that sell retro and vintage products.
How This Affects Our Content
We want to assure you that:
- The affiliate relationships do not affect the products we recommend. We only recommend products we genuinely believe are authentic, high-quality, and worth your money.
- We do not let merchants or brands dictate our content, and we do not write positive reviews in exchange for affiliate commissions.
- We clearly distinguish between authentic vintage items and reproductions in our guides, regardless of commission rates.
- We prioritize sellers with good return policies and customer service, so you can shop with confidence.
- We regularly update our guides to ensure the information and links remain accurate and relevant.
Identifying Affiliate Links
We make efforts to clearly identify affiliate links on our site. You may notice:
- Text links with the class "affiliate-link" that include a small shopping cart icon
- Product showcase sections that feature items available for purchase
- Disclosure statements at the bottom of articles that contain affiliate links
Additionally, we include a reminder in the footer of every page that our site contains affiliate links.
Your Support Matters
When you purchase products through our affiliate links, you're not only getting items we genuinely recommend, but you're also supporting our work at no additional cost to you. This allows us to continue creating high-quality, well-researched content about retro and 90s products.
We greatly appreciate your support, whether it comes through using our affiliate links, sharing our content, or simply enjoying our guides.
