This post contains affiliate links. OzBargain might earn commissions when you click through and make purchases. Please see this page for more information.

Good morning

Found some bargains on Amazon IT that may interest some of you.
I have added both original Amazon link and my affiliate link if you would like to support my effort in finding these bargains.
You do NOT pay any extra when clicking on my affiliate links , but amazon rewards me with a percentage of the sale which is 5% for electronic items and i think 10% for DVD/books/etc
If you have any question, feel free to ask and ill do my best to answer them.

I also have a facebook page http://www.facebook.com/SaveDollarz. I will be giving away 4 X $30 Amazon US cards when 1000 likes on my facebook page is reached (PS Mods, if this isn't allowed, please delete this part)

    Nice deal.

    Affiliate link must be at the bottom mate, as per new rules.

    Check whether this merchant already has commission cashback offered by sites like StartHere or Buckscoop.
    Make sure you check that the deal you are posting is not part of a Group Buy or Daily Deal site. If NO, then
    You need to post the non-affiliation link in the main URL/Link field.
    You are then allowed to post affiliation links at the end of the main post body. Make sure you declare your affiliation link. For example,
    It contains my affiliation link, and if you click through and make purchase, I will be getting commission from your purchases.
    Your post will be marked by a moderator as an affiliate post which places an aff tag next to your username.
    You are limited to 2 posts (including forum posts) a week containing affiliate links.
    DO not post affiliate link in Coupon code section. This supports the requirement for the link to be placed at end of text.
    Referral links are a privilege for members in a “Win Win” situation. After posting other members can also post their links. Voting down others links is frowned upon and may invoke a penalty. Especially by the original poster.
    At Ozbargain we consider the main beneficiary of referral votes must always be the user. NOT the poster.
    Moderators still hold the right to unpublish offers or remove affiliation part of the links, if found inappropriate. Requests for removal by the OP will be denied unless there is a sufficient reason.

      Thanks for pointing that out. But I think this way is permissible to as it is very clear which is an aff link and which is not. Scotty makes sure of that by greying out the aff link.

      • Moderatorscotty on 28/08/2012 - 09:50

        Yes in the case of multiple products/multiple affiliate links, I can't think of any other reasonable way to do it other than letting people posting two links next to each other. We do go through each individual links to check whether they are affiliate links, and then grey them out accordingly.

    12 Brita filter for 69 euro delivered. compatible with oz jug?

    • Cluster on 28/08/2012 - 14:04

      Looks like it. US$92.78 on Amazon USA plus delivery, so seems like a very good price.

      http://www.amazon.com/Brita-Maxtra-Water-Filter-Cartridges/d…

      Tempted to get some, even though the filters last 3 months or more.

    • Cluster on 28/08/2012 - 14:23

      Looking further afield, BigW has 6 filters for $49 every day, so $98 instead of about $84. Still a saving, but not so dramatic. eBay sellers from the UK offer 12 filters for about $86 delivered. I'll give Amazon IT's offer a miss.

        Still found this: http://www.zavvi.com/blu-ray/lord-of-the-rings-trilogy-exten…

        44.95 pounds delivered which works out to be about $68.50 i think :)

    This is a very mixed post. Some deals are good, others are not.
    For example, with the Blu-Rays you are better off with Amazon UK or other sellers in Oz.
    As an example, the Harry Potter Collection is $52.40 delivered to Australia from Amazon UK.
    See http://amzn.to/OFxYE4 (affiliate link)
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00543RC0Y/ref=ox_sc_sfl_… (non-aff link)

    or for The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Extended Edition [Blu-ray] [2001] - $54.73 delivered
    http://amzn.to/Oqk1LG (affiliate link)
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003AQC1CQ (non-aff link)

    Also, keep in mind that DVDs with region 2 will NOT work in Australia unless you have a region 2 DVD player or a region free player so for most people they will be useless.

    The BRITA Fjord Cool Midnight Blue Water Filter Jug Annual Pack is $89 delivered from Amazon UK ($1 cheaper and in English, but since this is Ozbargain I have to point it out).

    http://amzn.to/PMLIft (aff link)
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B001EHF29W/ref=ox_sc_sfl_… (non-aff link)

    I won't neg because some deals are good (such as Galaxy Tab, some of the coffee machines) but it seems a bit like the OP did not really compare prices on some items and /or consider the compatibility for the sake of posting as an affiliate on Amazon rather than having as the primary goal is to provide a bargain to Ozbargainers and the people of Australia.
    I find it a bit curious how suddenly people pop up as affs on Italian websites, just as we started running our software and the deals are proven to be popular.

          Love how Gallifrey subtley puts his Amazon affiliate links in there even in the comments. Anyone else starting to wonder if all these Amazon posts are to benefit bargain hunters or the posters with all their affiliate links?

          I propose all these continual Amazon posts also must have affiliate links to benefit OzBargain, ie funds go to the charities or the costs of running the website that people seem to be now taking advantage of.

        • [Deactivated] on 28/08/2012 - 10:20
          +5

          The website makes five digits min every months because of aff links. It makes enough to employ four people full time - you can do your own calculations from that (see About) while the little amount the people who post the deals make is pale compared to that. 75% of the wages of the person using and testing the software, writing up the deals, price checking comes from our wages and other research funding (and we use interns/student for that which are lucky if they can earn $500 a month as we cannot afford to pay more - we would like and maybe in the future will be able to if enough people support us by clicking the aff links).
          I can only talk for myself and my colleagues but I try to find the best deals for Ozbargainers - we definitely endeavour to not post anything that is not a bargain, certainly not for the sake of putting up aff links.
          The main goal is to save money for the users and then force retailers in Australia to lower their prices in the medium to long term so the people of Australia are treated fairly and on equal level with Europeans and Americans. We are not using Ozabargain to make money - we have our salaries for that. It is only when running a website becomes a livelihood one needs to become a bit more cautios (Read "Scammed" by Christopher Elliot if you want to find out about Search Engine Optimisation etc.).
          I do like your charities idea. We are happy to give 25% of total monthly income to Barnardo's or other charity if OZbargain and other posters match it but I doubt others would be happy to.

          i'm suprised scotty is allowing these links in the first place.. less profit for ozbargain lol Other sites like this keep it all for themselves.

        • Moderatorscotty on 28/08/2012 - 11:31

          less profit for ozbargain

          Not an issue for me.

          I do HOWEVER have issue with Amazon affiliates claiming to be OzBargain. For example Gallifrey your Amazon.it tag "wwwozbargainc-21" — which you would have claimed to be www.ozbargain.com.au to apply for it — would be unacceptable.

          Moreover, some referrals are fine in spirit — referring a friend to get mutual benefits. However I have seen people posting links from affiliate networks, where you need to be a website operator to get those links (I believe Amazon partners program might fall under this category). If you run a website, please keep your affiliate links on your own website rather than posting on a community site like OzBargain (assuming you do run a website, rather than claiming affiliated with OzBargain).

          There have been multiple issues when I opened this can of worm called "allowing affiliate links", but sorry I've been too busy recently to sort this out. I will take a look at it later next month, and no guarantee that nothing will change from now on.

        • [Deactivated] on 28/08/2012 - 12:43

          I am sorry that you believe that Scotty but neither I nor anybody else in my team has ever claimed to be Ozbargain. The registration asks where the link is posted from - no more or less. I have changed it now and there will no longer be Ozbargain in any of my links - I have no intention of creating confusion or antagonise you or anything like that.
          As regards the mutual benefit - we are working on that as well.
          While I appreciate that aff links are difficult, it is those links that make Ozbargain a success. Acknowledging the work, effort, and investment you put into the website that is fine. However, I also believe that it is fine to allow the members, the very people that drive traffic on Ozbargain and other websites, to receive a reward if they find a deal. As you mentioned, there should be mutual benefits, for Ozbargain, the posters, and the users.
          Please keep this in mind if you do make changes.

      Also, keep in mind that DVDs with region 2 will NOT work in Australia unless you have a region 2 DVD player or a region free player so for most people they will be useless.

      Not disagreeing with you, but legally, all DVD players sold in Australia must have codes that allow the user to make it region free.

      Also, I'd like to ask what % of a sale do you make when someone buys via aff link?

      Gallifrey,

      You don't own Amazon, or the deals, or the idea of posting Amazon deals on OzBargain, or the idea of stripping Amazon & like sites using scripts, or my purchasing decisions, or "OzBargainers and the people of Australia".

      This posting by SaveDollarz is just the free market in action, and it's the free market in action that is the main determinant of prices. Your piggy-backing on the work of the OzBargain guys by posting here in the first place is another example of the free market in action.

      I love the free market, and i love it when it acts.

      In terms of any IP worth protecting, unless they have raided the scripts your "team" of indented labour have written, you would or should know that you have no grounds for any action. The fact is such scripts would not be very difficult to write, especially given the common structure of Amazon's various sites.

      Please feel free to use my affiliate link.

The design, the body , the overall outlook are just fine for me but the screen is a deal breaker. The centerpiece of any Tablet shall be the screen but this time, Sammy failed miserably so to me, if I am in need of a tablet, I will go for the new iPAD, and if I do need a Android one, I will go for Nexus 7 or even the sammy 7.7 one is better

    Not a mod, but have to say that as a community member, I hate the idea of letting people encourage votes via competittions rather than on the strength of the deal. Encourages reps to do likewise to encourage their "deals" to the front page even when the deals not worth it. Outlay $200 in prizes to get $3000 in increased sales. Degrades the system.

    • Moderatorneil on 28/08/2012 - 16:21

      Asking people to vote up a deal for incentive/prize is not allowed and undermines the voting system. I believe the OP is asking for Facebook likes. Given he wants 1000 and it is at 23, it's not really much of a carrot to dangle.

    Hey OP,

    I noticed that some time after you initially posted, you added a reference to commission via affiliate links within your opening post.

    Couple of questions:

    1. Do you have any visibility of who uses your affiliate links? For example, if i clicked your link, but did nothing more, would you know?

    2. If i follow through with a purchase on Amazon, do you have visibility in terms of my OB reference (FreckleNuts), or any possible Amazon reference?

    Apologies if this is covered elsewhere…

      I can see the item that was clicked on and the amount of clicks only,

      If i follow through with a purchase on Amazon, do you have visibility in terms of my OB reference (FreckleNuts), or any possible Amazon reference?

      I am unable to see the identity of the buyer. Its completely confidential with amazon

      Hope this answers your questions

      • [Deactivated] on 29/08/2012 - 00:39

        I’m curious as to who knows what with these affiliate link transactions.

        Are you, or anyone else, in a position to confirm that the following assertions are correct?

        1. You know how many clicks for each link, when the link was clicked, but that is all in relation to the links themselves. No identity information is available to you (eg: OB ref) – you would not know for example if all the clicks were by the same user.

        2. OB also has the information in (1) above (from their web logs), but in addition also knows who clicked the link (at least in terms of OB ref).

        3. Amazon advises you the time a particular sale was executed, the particular item that was sold, and the corresponding affiliate link that switched the user to the Amazon site. But that is all: you have no other identity information. From this you can infer what commission is payable by Amazon, but ultimately you are dependent on their systems. But you certainly have enough information to infer which links are profitable, and which are not.

        4. OB does not have access to the information in (3), nor any way of independently inferring it.

        5. Amazon obviously has my details if I make a purchase, but does not know, or have any way of independently inferring, my OB reference.

        Apologies for being off-topic, but here seems just as good a place as any to ask.

        There was some info somewhere on OB about affiliate links, but I couldn’t find it.

        • Moderatorneil on 29/08/2012 - 00:56

          These are the guidelines.

          (2.) Yes, hypothetically but I don't think that data has every been extrapolated for anything. A clickthrough doesn't signify anything meaningful. Users to what they vote for are more interesting data wise (and good for spotting irregular patterns). That information is public.

          (4.) No, 2 different websites. Amazon won't be revealing any private information especially as they are based in so many countries, they'd get the pants sue off them.

          I suggest you sign up to the Amazon referral program. I had a check today and apparently I signed up for it almost 10 years ago! Never used it.

        • [Deactivated] on 29/08/2012 - 01:16

          Thanks.

          Re (2) - yes, it requires analysis and as you say almost certainly isn't worth it as it doesn't reveal conversions (clicks to sales).

          Re (4), no, i didn't think so, but thought i'd ask anyway.

          Not an affiliate of anyone (nor plan to be), or associated with anyone (or plan to be). Though I do have the skill base & experience to perhaps pull something off along the lines of the Amazon deal posters (but don't plan to).

          My questions here were simply prompted by my interest in information privacy - who knows what & when. Many a $ has been spent in business simply trying to resolve the full end-end transaction.
