So if they don't post an exact description of the item then I can't search for it. I have had another member say this is the same thing that happens to them. It isn't every single link but maybe 50 percent.

Right click them, copy the address, paste in a new window, and they will usually work. I've been having a similar issue; if I click on them, it just takes me back to the same page I was on when I clicked the link.

Odd now the two links that did not work earlier now work. Thanks for the tip I will try that in the future.

Ryan uses a 3rd party referral service to generate revenue on Amazon clicks (like lots of sites do), so when you click on an Amazon link, it directs you to another site then Amazon. If you have any kind of ad blocker/tracker protector, it won't like that. I do the copy and paste deal that @Boogerman mentioned.

Same issue here, started when I upgraded my wireless router and enabled the firewall

As mentioned above, once I enabled the ad block on my new router I started having issues. Hits the sponsored ads on Google too.


Really?see my comments above. Happened across several devices at the same time, and is happening on this brand new phone straight from the box.

Yes, referral services fall into a bit of a gray area. The corporate firewalls I oversee at work employ a similar approach with these links. That's why I usually recommend using browser-level ad blocking—it provides more precise control over what you want to block and what you prefer to allow.
