I have not made a single penny from Amazon and would like to hear your experience.
1. If someone (without an Amazon account) saw an Amazon product and click through an ad from your hubpage, Then the person went on to create an account and made the purchase later on. Will you (the hubber) get credit for the purchase?
2. If someone (an Amazon account holder) saw an ad from your hub, and bought an Amazon product, will you get the credit?
Is it better off to eliminate the Amazon links and let Adsense to take over?
If someone clicks through to Amazon from an ad on your hub, you get credit for their purchases over the subsequent 24 hours. If they put something in their shopping cart but don't buy it right away, you still get credit as long as they purchase in the subsequent 89 days. There are a few additional caveats, but that's the basic principle.
I took a look at your hubs, and I think you're better off with AdSense. To really make money with Amazon, you have to write sales-focused hubs around products.
It is possible to do both, of course! Some of my hubs earn well on both Adsense and Amazon. But this may be the exception rather than the rule!

Does adsense pay attention to click-though rates and sales? My lens (now a hub) on king mackerel fishing only receives about 50 views a month. But it had a nearly 30 click-outs each month, resulting in 3-4 sales. I would have had decent earnings but the 'Great Purge' over in squid...

Hi,I have just written my first hub. I have refreshed the page now 4 or 5 times, and checked the source.Each time, all of the google ads and also all of the amazon books were using a hubpages identifier, rather than my own.Is this normal at the start? I was under the impression that - at least with...

When you get paid, are your earnings from Kontera, Google and EBay all combined and paid at once through Paypal ? If so I am getting close to my first payout- if not how are payouts made for each affiliate?Thanks!

When I signed up for HubPages, things were done differently. I may have signed up with an amazon ID, that is now defunct. I am wondering now, if the new way references the ID I signed up with; unfortunately I can see no way to check. Can someone provide me insight on this please?
