Neal,

Ordered DVD Atlantic convoys through the Amazon Link here. Seller was a UK shop and standard shipping (anytime within a month) cost the same as the DVD... which was a bit off I thought. Anyways hope some goes to subsim for this.

I've bought lots of stuff from Amazon lately, and always through here, but I keep forgetting to list them.

JAG, season 5 was one.

Videos mostly, but I did buy a Behringer 550-watt bass amp. $326.

Oh, and I paid $79 for Amazon Prime, which means I'm now getting free two-day delivery on pretty much everything. When I got the amp head I figured it was time.

I got it when I did my Christmas shopping there last year - they had a free 30 trial. After the 30 days I just paid the $79 and I'll almost certainly renew it. It's well worth not paying any shipping costs, and still getting the 2-day turnaround, on everything Amazon sells. Plus I've found quite a few third party sellers have their orders fulfilled by Amazon and the Prime advantages apply to them as well.

Same here. After the thirty days I was surprised by an unexpected withdrawal from my account, and was going crazy trying to figure out what I'd spent exactly $79 on. Once it hit me I realized that I'm averaging a video and a piece of music about once per week, and that doesn't include other stuff.

So now I figure I'm paying less for two-day shipping than I was for regular shipping, which is at least $2.98 a pop. considering I paid $50 bucks for regular shipping when I bought a speaker cabinet from an online source, free two-day is fantastic for the amp head to go with it. The only thing that equals it is Walmart and Guitar Center's 'Free shipping to store', and that takes a lot longer than two days. :sunny:

Neal - 0.845 GBP heading your way via Amazon UK! :D

Hey, that's over a dollar! :up:

*mumbles to self* must spend more :yep:

Onkel Neal 02-18-11 06:56 AM

Sorry for the delay, but I really appreciate this kind of feedback! :yeah:

Steve, nothing of your showed up. I know it's a few months after the fact, but can you use that professor brain of yours to recall which links or what path you took from Subsim to Amazon ? I have to fix that, you'are about 16% of the store revenues, Mr. Sailor Trump.

I'm asking my mother to order a few items through the main Subsim store http://www.subsim.com/store.html to help me trust the tracking, too. Wish I could order through my own store to check but Amazon forbids this.

thanks and thanks again to all who order through the Subsim store search box and then list the goodies here to help me stay on top of things.

Oh wait, I found it, Steve! It was back in Sept.
Behringer Classic 550-Watt Bass Amp Head BVT5500H

Wow, that commission was enough to buy me lunch. And Dinner!

Ok, buddy, I bow to your awesomeness :salute: Thank you!!

Did you also order Kyser 6 String Capo, Black in the lst few days? I see several musical items listed, maybe I need to switch Subsim from subs to guitars?

Sledgehammer427 02-19-11 03:21 AM

Neal, my birthday is coming up in a couple days, once I get some of that money coming through, I'm looking to order some stuff from amazon, I'll definitely have to go through the amazon link!
(With any luck, another donation as well :up:)

Nope, wasn't me. But as we well know I'm hardly the only musician here.

I finally have myself trained to always go through Subsim, after all the times I just plain forgot. My recent purchases have been limited to videos. I'm up to season 9 of JAG and season 6 of Smallville, and am about to order the next ones. I also finally picked up a DVD copy of I, Claudius.

Onkel Neal 02-19-11 12:12 PM

Thanks, Sledge, Steve. Yeah, I have to find a way to get this in the collective consciousness of all 5000 people here, if we could use this business advatnage Subsim has with Amazon 100% of the time, I would be able to relax and enjoy running a website as a hobby again! :rock:

Sailor Steve 02-20-11 06:44 PM

Oh, I completely forgot the $30 DVD rack I picked up last month.

As for clueing people in, I'd be glad to have a link (or at least the banner) in my sig, if that's possible. :sunny:

Gargamel 02-21-11 01:54 AM

Oh heys, missed this thread. Yeah, set all my computers amazon shortcuts to the subsim link. So when my wife buys all here girly books form there, subsim get's a cut. I try to go through it when I buy kindle stuff, but I'm sometimes on the road (or on the crapper), and using the phone/kindle to go through links is very difficult.
