    Honestly, I don't know, but it seems to be working because I've made about $26 and £9 so far, with a few more items due to ship eventually. I imagine it tracks your session somehow.

    Yep! Shame Amazon.com insists on charging me $15 for every cheque I get (I decide how much it has to add up to before I get the cheque) because apparently it doesn't understand international bank transfers at all.

    If there's no "cap" and you're not in a hurry, I'd just let it sit and build up for a while before snagging that cheque. There will be a boost for Christmas, sure; but people order stuff on Amazon pretty regularly and the more time goes on, the more likely people are to find out about this if they've been away for a while.

    I think I have it set for $200 at the moment.

    EDIT: On a sidenote, some really weird things have been bought on Amazon.com. I can't check Amazon.co.uk because Danielle got my Christmas presents through there and I'm pretty sure I'd know which ones they were if I looked at the list, even if I can't tell who orders what. I won't reveal what has been bought because they could be presents for other EoFFers. :o Remarkably few video games, I'll say that much.

    Yeah, I'm not so sure I care to use this checkout if you can see what we buy, especially if you're going to call purchases weird.

    It's not that shady. I imagine he gets to see what's ordered if only for his own confirmation that the amount they give him is correct.

    Also, just do what ToriJ said. And set the delivery address to BoB's work.

    I thought what Vivi22 just suggested was what everyone was doing this whole time. I'm disappointed.

    I just ordered something from Amazon earlier this morning, but in my sickness and half-awakeness I forgot to use my bookmarked amazon link =(. Next time.

    You can buy sex toys on Amazon?

    Now I need to trawl Amazon for the greasiest purchases it's possible to make, and use the EoFF affiliate link. Do they sell quicklime and shovels? Rohypnol? Bulk quantities of plastic wrap, knives, and duct tape? Wood chippers? The Sudetenland?

    I'm too afraid of doing a search for all of those things and being reported to the authorities based on what "recently viewed items" list contains to answer your questions.
