Update on this.
Amazon Astore terms are now not allowing paid advertisements of Astore.

Following is the mail I received.

Hello,

I recently noticed that you are sending customers to an aStore through the use of paid advertising on a search network. Associates are not permitted to engage in keyword bidding or other paid search on Google, Yahoo, MSN, and other search engines, and their extended search networks, to send traffic to any astore.amazon.com domain. You will not be paid for purchases made by users directed to an aStore through this type of paid search advertising.

Also, Associates are not permitted to use aStores as standalone Web sites, nor are Associates permitted to use a standalone aStore URL as the destination URL for any paid search advertisements. However, you may embed the aStore in your own site or provide a link on your site for your customers to access an aStore, and if you do so, you may send users to your embedded aStore via paid search advertisements.

You can find the full text of the Operating Agreement by following this link:

http://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/agreement/

Please stop all paid search advertising that uses a standalone aStore as the destination URL promptly and discontinue any further activity of that nature. If, after 5 business days have passed, we find that you are continuing to engage in this prohibited activity, your Associates account will be closed and your accrued referral fees will be withheld, including fees that may have been earned through advertising activities that are permitted under the Operating Agreement.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Best regards,
