    Hi,

    An update to say that with Game going into administration, our shopping link with them no longer works. I've removed the link from our site, there's not much more we can do about that .

    I've received notice that our shopping link for Asda has been moved to a different system. I've requested for us to join this system, and I will let you know when we are successful. Currently the Asda link has been removed and will be re-added at a later point.


    Going forward, are they any online shops/stores you buy from - even semi-regularly?
    Even if you hardly buy from them, it's worth mentioning as other people may shop there as well.


    You can always see the latest online stores we have shopping links for on our front page and affiliates page.

    We could do with a new icon for HMV...

    I've just got my handcuffs and my truncheon and that's enough.

    Can we do Amazon US at all? I mean, is that possible for us, since PS is UK-based?

    Hi,

    I've sent both HMV and Amazon US requests to join their shopping programs and will let you know when we are successful.

    Excellent stuff, Phil
    Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!

    I attempted to use the Amazon US site link yesterday, but I don't know if there is a way to know if it worked or not.

    Hi Jeff,

    We have confidence in the links we've published - if you clicked on our link and then added the item to your shopping basket, when you buy the item we will get credited for it.

    Hi,

    I've added 'Skimlinks' to the forum

    It will take any 'un-affiliated' link on the site and give us a small revenue if you buy something from the link. (Previously there would have been no revenue for us.)


    We would rather you use the direct links above (and on our home page), but incase you don't, or the store isn't listed above, 'Skimlinks' will give us a return.

    I've given it a run through on a test-site with no issues; so I'm not expecting there to be any issues here - but please let us know if you encounter any.

    Thanks.

    Philip J. Ludlam.

    I made an affiliated purchase with Amazon yesterday for £200 (a tablet) so I sincerely hope the link worked as that must help the coffers somewhat!

    To keep you updated, we are no longer with HMV and SendIt.com.

    Instead we now have:
