This is a sponsored listing (read: ad) on Proggit, using the poster's affiliate ID. I envy whoever thought of running that. Brilliant way to generate affiliate income.

Many reddit users (especially on Proggit) are quite averse to people posting links on Amazon with their ref.
Granted, this is different since it as a sponsored listing would give some money to Reddit and thus generate a bit more goodwill.
Still, my wild guess say the poster will be lucky to get his money back.
