    Depends, always good idea to check the affiliate policy for the advertiser.

    I was told by cj that its ok as long as you have permission from the advertiser to purchase from your link. i always get permission first.

    I have been using that new tool that shows the links of things purchased from your cj cvs file. That tool rocks!! sorry i dont remember off hand the link.

    anyway i did see a purchase that i made on e bay that i got credit for but i dont know how i did it? When you make a new ek with ebay it tells you to click the links to make sure it takes you to the right place. i think when you do this it drops a cookie for it.... but im not sure...JMO
