Topic: Shop!

[Admin aka Dan]

Ooo, this is excellent news.  I am a regular user of Amazon!  I buy most of my books and cds from there so I might be able to keep this site going single handedly, hehehe  ;) ;D

PS is my avatar appearing so huge to everybody else or just me?  ???

Edit:  Oh, hang on .... being the dunce that I am, I'm a little confused.  When I click on the books subcategory, it comes up with a sort of A4A bookstore - do I have to pick a book from the x amount of pages of books under that heading, or can I buy any book on Amazon for it to work as long as I've followed the link from here?

To cut a long story short, I'm after a particular book about the Vietnam War - will it count?

From the shop you can either search for a book, in the top left of the screen, or click on the go to amazon link just under the search area.

Let me know if that does not make sense.

so if we hit the amazon link that takes us to their blue coloured area and leaving the A4A brownish screen, we're still earning A4A money yeah ?

[Admin aka Dan]

yeah!

Any chance you could make this thread sticky please, Dan?  :)

Oops, hehe, no need.  I see it as one of the forum headers  :-[

Am I right in understanding that it doeasn't count all items - I did a book order but couldn't add in a PC bit.  I did that after I got into the chechout bit - hopped out, added the item, back in again.  Hope you still got the books  worth - ordered yesterday if that helps check.

It should keep track on a visit basis, but it is very hard to check.

If you PM the details I might be able to see.

Cheers

Hi Dan

I've just tried to buy a couple of books through the A4A amazon link but I keep getting this message:

"Cart Error
This item could not be added to your cart. Please visit Amazon for more purchasing options.
Your shopping cart is empty."

I've bought a couple of books through the A4A link before and it worked fine. Is it likely to be a glitch because they're busy or something more technical?
