Actually it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the format of the link. Here’s a link that was formatted like the one you did @codinghorror.

> **[Amazon.com | Saucony Women's Mirage 5 Road Running Shoe, Green/Coral, 5 M US |...](https://www.amazon.com/Saucony-Womens-Mirage-Running-Shoe/dp/B00KPTY62E)**
>
> Buy Saucony Women's Mirage 5 Road Running Shoe, Green/Coral, 5 M US and other Road Running at Amazon.com. Our wide selection is eligible for free shipping and free returns.

For some reason when I paste an Amazon link here or on our forum, the request to Amazon results in a 404.
