If I were to follow a blu-ray link here to amazon and add an Onkyo Receiver to my cart Blu-ray.com gets some of that profit from the sale right?

I've been doing this with books and what not when I'm not ordering blus. (blu's too)

Sussudio · 05-17-2009, 03:11 PM

that's correct...once you follow a link on here, whatever you purchase on amazon also helps out bluray.com

(mods correct me if im wrong, but that's what i always thought)

SleeperAgent · 05-17-2009, 03:25 PM

That's how I've been shopping. Go here to get to amazon then order. This place rocks. I'll order my receiver through them. all the other HT stuff too expensive.

Correct, Amazon is the sole source of advertising. iceman and marwin take pride in the site and unlike other HD sites, they have no ads running in the background or annoying pop ups. Heres a great thread on the subject

I just ordered a vacuum hose, I added the ?tag= to the link as well, better someone get the credit than no one

Does that apply when I then click-through from there to let's say amazon.ca or amazon. co.uk?

yes, all Amazon's have tags

you can verify by looking at the end of the url, it will have the www.amazon.ca/asin/?tag=bluraycom0c-20

its all good

I am just glad we arent overwhelmed with pop ups like other sites. There is no external advertising here and I try my best to keep it that way. With all the orders I place I always go through the links here.

Steve · 05-18-2009, 04:29 PM

This is all news to me. I'll keep it in mind in the future though.
