Goodies of the week! Subsim store and Amazon
Hi Neal,
I just realized the option to support subsim by accessing amazon via the subsim store. I tried through http://www.subsim.com/store_de.html but could not found any hint on the amazon site that they would credit subsim for the sale. Is this normal or do I have to make something in another way? PS: It's christmas shopping time

A lot of people tell me the same thing, the process is transparent, so as long as you start your Amazon shopping by using the search box or any of the item links on the Subsim store pages below, the code should give Subsim the credit for the sale. You can seach for a laptop, it sends you to Amazon. Maybe you decide not to buy the laptop but you see that DAS BOOT Uncut DVD set or a nice necklace for your sweetie. As long as you started from the Subsim page and used it to get to Amazon, Subsim gets 6.5% and it costs you nothing extra. Thanks for asking, this does need to be repeated occasionally. If everyone who used the Subsim forums would take this extra step and use the Subsim search for Amazon, we wouldn't need donations or advertising at all!

They give you 6.5% of the item's price? That is more than I would have estimated. I wouldn't even have expected a 1 in front of the decimal. If I were you I would make using subsim for amazon orders obligatory for forum-membership and then stop working!

I buy all of my amazon stuff through subsim, and I've got my dad doing the same. Anything to help a poor Raiders fan .

If Amazon only paid 1%, man, that would not even be worth setting up and maintaining the links. The thing is, a lot of people are not aware of the Subsim/Amazon affiliation. If I remind people too much, I become a nagging telemarketor ; if I don't mention it enough, they never know about it.

Maybe you create a part in the FAQ or in the GT with the topic: "How this site is run"? :hmm: Hell, maybe it is there, but until now, it didn't came to my eye

I work for Amazon.com but I'm not sure I quite follow this thread, is somebody having issues or no?

More than once I've reminded someone in a thread to use the Subsim link, and had to admit that I'm always forgetting myself. I've been good the last few times though, which is why I wasn't afraid to post my purchases.
