Pinterest links now NOT sending people directly to your product page...

Instead of links on your pins going directly to your product page here on Zazzle, they now appear to link to some kind of 'inbetween' page. This page does appear to be part of the Zazzle website which features your product, however does not have the purchase button anywhere, instead it says 'view product details'. You click on that, and only THEN are taken to your actual product where someone can purchase it. Is this a Pinterest initiative or a Zazzle one? It seems to me that by adding this extra step it's only going to be one more obstacle in trying to get a sale. 😕

I saw that recently too. Looks like a condensed springboard of sorts to the product page. I do like seeing the image thumbnails to the left of the main product image.

I like the page, it looks uncluttered. I don't think it will hamper sales at all

Interestingly, I've noticed that the URL for the "inbetween" page will show your rf and tc codes (if you have these enabled on/added to your pin).

When you click on the View Product Details button to pull up the full product page, this link will redirect to the clean Zazzle link.
