Can I buy through my own links?

I realize this is probly a dumb question, but I can't find it in the Amazon agreement. Can I buy through my own affiliate links? I'm reading around the web you can. But I don't want Amazon to axe me. Anybody? Anyone?

 

Now i'm reading you can't.

 

can't to make

 

Not supposed to. It is actually written in the agreement. Does anyone read those things any more?

 

I didn't til now. thanks though.

 

Sure you can buy from your own links. But Amazon won't pay you referral fees for that.

The goal of the Amazon Associates is to get new customers.

 

I'd say for the most part no one really reads these things.

 

Thanks everybody. I figured but thought I'd ask peoples who know. Thanks again.
