Amazon links don't work.

I've noticed that links to Amazon merchandise never work. Is it a known issue?

In an unrelated incident, my Prime tv thingy didn't work for about an hour last night.
Obviously the two things are related.

It gets worse... in a further obviously related event, I ordered something on Prime and it’s not even in stock, never mind delivered next day. Is Arrse breaking Amazon?

Can you give an example of where you've found a broken link pse?


For those who don't know, Amazon runs an affiliate/referral scheme. This means if you click on a link from here and then buy something on Amazon we get a small % of the overall purchase. It doesn't cost you anything but is a small bit of extra cash for the site which we mainly use to the fund the Grand Xmas Draw that @Auld-Yin is about to kick off shortly!

You'll also find an Amazon link in the header - feel free to use it when you're doing your Xmas shopping!

That link worked fine for me?

The above is all I get after copying and pasting an Amazon link. The Amazon logo flashes up briefly then changes to the broken link picture.

Oh really? Thanks for that. I've no idea why I can only see this then.

Link works just fine for me. Straight to my Amazon homepage in the blink of an eye.
