Funny... the exact cost for new breaks on my car... lol Actually, it's not the exact cost. I need $3100 worth of work done, but they can't get the parts because of the supply line issues. They've had the car for almost a month now, waiting to get the parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pallidrone Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 @VaBeach_Eagle Do you know if the link will work for Amazon Business accounts? I have to have someone order around $20k in equipment and instead of going through our vendor, I could have some of the equipment bought through Amazon instead. For us the price is about the same regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One a tad over $60 and one a tad under $15. Those have both shipped, so if your purchase isn't one of those two, and hasn't shipped yet, that would be why it hasn't shown up yet. If it has shipped, it could be from a category that doesn't pay a commission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far I can't find anything one way or the other about business accounts and whether or not a commission would be paid on those purchases. So I can't say for sure. If you use our link and the board makes a commission, that's great. If not, that's too bad, but it's worth a try. Below is their FAQ on commissions and categories and what each pays, if anything. 19 minutes ago, NOTW said: It was a book at $12.04 and food item at $22.89. Only .72 cent tax total. So probably not.

Ajxxx Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Oh yeah. Am moving to US so will create new Rakuten account and new Amazon purchases would go through affiliate link.

The way I understand it, when you click on the link, it sets a 24 hour cookie. Anything purchased within those 24 hours, if a commission is available, will be credited to the board. Does it count for items that are already in your shopping cart? That I don't know, but I'll see if I can find an answer. Also, the reports are 24 hours behind. If you buy something today, I won't see any activity (in terms of clicks or purchases) until tomorrow. Any payout of a commission (or even having a commission register on the report), won't happen until the item(s) actually ship. So that too, could cause a bit of delay in reporting of commissions.

VaBeach_Eagle Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 After a few donations, we're now at $963.37. There's at least one donation that hasn't been transferred to the bank yet though. Once that's done, we'll be around $982 and some change. Then there's $37.69 (as of today), sitting in Amazon for this month. So that'll be added to the pot, and as of this moment, about $50 in Google ad revenue that we have coming to us (but the Google ad money isn't paid out until it reaches at least $100). So we're inching closer to what we need for 2022/23, which is in the $1500 to $1600 range. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get that $30 sent to you and the board gets $30 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read more then just the beanbagger threads! Lol I dont know how so many people say they didnt know about these links. Its disappointing. We probably could have had the funding done plus plenty more in surplus. But hopefully, after this reminder people will remember in the future. For this year, I will absolutely donate to the gofundme again when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazletonEagle Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 @VaBeach_Eagle when is the due date for payment? I clicked on the gofund me, and read April. Is it April 1st? At some point I think it would be a good idea to start a campaign to raise funds on the gofundme page. I dont remember what Tommy has done on his site in the past when members would fund his trip to cover the senior bowl. I feel like I remember seeing a gofundme icon/ad on his page. I know people don't want ads here, but I think most everyone would make an exception for this purpose, maybe 1-2 months out of the year. Wouldnt kill us to see a link to the gofundme made very visible at the top or on the borders of the page to make sure everyone sees it and has an opportunity to donate funds in time. Is there some way you can send a mass email to the members of the board as a reminder to raise funds for the operational cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
