Our Policy on Samples ~
We do not require samples to feature a product on MyShoppingConnection. However, in the absence of experiencing a product first-hand, we do require high quality photos. If you choose to send samples of your product, we are able to write more thorough, in-depth and thoughtful reviews; sending a sample does not guarantee placement or a favorable review on MyShoppingConnection. We are unable to return samples, so please keep this in mind.
Non-returnable samples may be sent to the following:
