Best Buy affiliate links not working - Stuck on Loading - Blu-ray Forum

wjasoncul · 10-30-2017, 02:14 PM

If I click a Best Buy link from one of our threads, the page just sits at loading images and the Pre-Order/Add to Cart button just says Loading too.

Take Atomic Blonde for example. If I click the below link, the page just loads and loads
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/atomic-...?skuId=6037002

If I open a new Browser page and search for Atomic Blonde steelbook, the page loads fine. I can see Images and click Pre-Order.

I'm using Chrome but I've tried this on two separate computers and different browsers.

If I go to the actual DB Listing and click the Buy Now button, then the page loads fine. It's just something about the links inside Threads that doesn't work.

It works for me on my tablet. Will try other browsers and devices later.

I can't even click the link above on my iPhone in Safari.

If I try using Tapatalk, then it does pull up the item that way and I can pre-order.

I don't know why it won't load on my work computers. I'll try when I go home for lunch and see what it does there. Maybe my office's network is locking something down?

Just tried it on my desktop PC using using Firefox, and I also got the same loading screen shown in the op

Thanks for confirming

I'm not sure if we are working on this issue, but the link I posted in my OP is working for me now. However, I tried to use the purchase link here and it still does the Loading page thing.

Both just loaded up for on my desktop. It may have taken a couple extra seconds, but both the pictures and the add to cart became visible.

Oh well...

I don't know what could be different between the two but the BvS link def won't load for me. I waited a few minutes before making the post just to be sure.

Thanks again for confirming

It's a sign. The universe is preventing you from buying that fugly steelbook.

I have the same trouble as Jason, I'm using desktop Chrome.

Edit: It's working today.
