What does DU get when we order books through the Amazon link?

[goddess40]

I ordered a lot during christmas and I just order another $200+ worth of books through the link on the main page. Is it a percentage or a set amount per order?

[sandnsea]

1. percentage

The more they sell, the higher the percentage goes. If they are really big big sellers, say over 5000 books a quarter, they could probably negotiate 10% or more. Good deal for a site this big.

2. and as bonus, maybe your name goes into the FBI & CIA databases? nt

3. What??

People use credit cards to buy online, so I don't suppose it really matters who they buy from, now does it.

4. Yeah, DeadEyeDick is in his bunker going over credit card

records for all of the disruptors. LOL.

5. Isn't Amazon red?

I always pay more to order from Barnes & Noble online because they're blue. I didn't realize DU could get a cut of the Amazon profits. Hmm..now I have to re-think my book buying habits.
