Amazon Store links dont work with Amazon Items in views

Hello,
I'm having trouble integrating the Amazon module(6.x-1.x-dev) with Views(6.x-3.x-dev) and Amazon Store(6.x-1.0-beta3). I've cross posted in the Amazon Module page.
If I make a new View and select "Amazon Item" as my view type, I am able to get Views to display my Amazon-specific fields like the title and the picture but the the amazon field setting page only lets me select either "no link" or "link to amazon". If I select "link to amazon" it doesn't redirect to my amazon store page but goes directly to Amazon.com
If I make a new View and select "Node" as my view type, I am able to access some very limited Amazon Item features through the Amazon Item Content Field, and these link as expected to my Amazon Store.
Sorry if this is really an Amazon Store problem, but thought I'd post here in case anyone could help!
TIA

update:
It seems there's a discrepancy in the information generated by the Amazon Item content field type. if I select "small image and basic info" it generates the thumbnail and the title of the item, which links correctly to the Amazon Store. If I select "title as link" it generates the title of the item but the link goes to Amazon.com.
HTH, Thank you!

Amazon Store is not currently directly integrated with Amazon module. Rather it catches requests and rewrites them where it can. In the case you're talking about, it can't. If I'm not mistaken, this is a duplicate of #510432: Make amazon_inline_item another type of amazon_item so preprocessing is done, so I'm marking it as such. Since I'm now a committer on Amazon, I expect I'll get this fixed.
