Some guy put his affiliate link in the Amazon review!

8 replies
I have never noticed this before, but a guy wrote up a review and put referral links to related products all over the place. He is a Hall of Fame reviewer too! Does Amazon allow this?

    I just read my original post and realize I may have not been clear given the sarcastic response. I mean the review on amazon.com in the customer review section has affiliate links.

      I caught that Dave. I still think Ken's answer goes, though. You might want to get Ironman's approval, too.

        Well I'm sure a hall of farmer wouldn't risk his status for something trivial like that.

          Hi Emaloy,

          No offense but that 'hall of farmer' made my day.
          Was that intentional or a typo? :p

    I guess I'm not smart enough to get some of the responses ... I was wondering the same thing as the OP.
