01What this means
Many links on Cool Stuff are affiliate links. If you buy through such a link, we may earn a commission from the store at no additional cost to you.
As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
Amazon is one of several partners. The same principle applies to every link on this website, whichever store or network is behind it.
02Our partners
Cool Stuff takes part in the Amazon Associates programs of several marketplaces and works with affiliate networks such as Awin, as well as with individual stores directly. Each product card and product page names the store the offer belongs to.
Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates. Names of other stores and networks belong to their respective owners.
03How links are marked
Buttons that lead to a store say View at followed by the store name, or Check the current price at followed by the store name. They open in a new tab and carry the technical marking rel="sponsored", so search engines know they are paid links.
Some links pass through the tracking address of an affiliate network before they reach the store. That is how the store knows the visit came from us.
04Editorial independence
Products are chosen for design, build quality and real use. A commission never decides what makes the shelf, never changes the order of picks and is not the same for every partner. We do not accept payment for placement.
Texts are checked by a human before publication. AI tools may help with drafting, but every pick is reviewed before it goes live.
05Prices and availability
Prices shown on Cool Stuff are a guide from the day a pick was reviewed. Prices, offers and availability change often. The price on the store page at the time you buy is the one that counts.
06Your purchase
You buy from the store behind the link, not from us. Orders, payment, delivery, returns and customer service are handled by that store. Please read its terms before you buy.
