is the Amazon 'buy' thingy still working from here??

[Rooster_Ties]

Just wanted to make sure the Amazon search thingy is working OK, from the board. I know that's supposed to be the way to make sure the board gets the credit (and $) for the sale.

Thing is, when I use it (the Big O "Amazon" search thingy) -- I don't see anything in either of the URL's that first come up in the new window, that would indicate some parameter is being passed that ID's the Big O board in the transaction.

( Also, the CD Universe doesn't appear to be working -- BUT, at least with it, I'm clearly seeing a parameter that ID's the board (even if it isn't triggering the search right on the CD-U side of things). )

But FWIW, I'm trying to buy a bunch of stuff on Amazon, and want to be completely sure some of that $$ gets back to the board.

Yes it works.

What about CD Universe? The last time I ordered from there, I thought it didn't work because CD Universe showed an error message. Does it work anyway?

It looks like they changed their search string. I think it still works, even though it gives you an error. All you have to do is get TO the CDUniverse site through organissimo and it will credit any purchases made within 24 hours of that transfer.

That said, I'll see if I can get the search to actually work.

Looks like I got it working.

Order placed. A little over $100, so hopefully another $6 or $8 to the board. (The kickback was 6% or 8%, right??)
