How to Share Your Amazon Cart on Reddit (PC Builds & More)
Quick answer: Install the free AMZ Cart Share extension on your computer, open your Amazon cart, and click the extension to create one link with every item and quantity. Paste the link into a Reddit DM, comment or post. Anyone who opens it sees your exact cart and can add it to their own in one click, without installing anything.

How to share your Amazon cart on Reddit
- Create the link. Install AMZ Cart Share for Chrome, or the Edge or Firefox version. Open your Amazon cart and click the extension icon (pin it from the 🧩 menu if you can't see it). Give the cart a title, like "1440p gaming build, $1,200 budget", so people know what they're looking at.
- Post or send it. Paste the link into a DM to one person, or into a comment or post for a whole subreddit.
- Update and re-share. The link is a snapshot. If someone suggests a swap, change your cart and post a new link.
Check the subreddit's rules first. Some subreddits remove shortened links, and many PC-building communities prefer a specific format for build help. If links aren't allowed, a DM is usually fine.
The most common Reddit use: PC build parts lists
The most common thing people share for a second opinion is a PC build. Outside the US, almost 1 in 5 carts shared with AMZ Cart Share is a PC build parts list, about 4 times the US rate. Many come from the Japan, France and Germany Amazon stores.
These are the most-shared PC parts, by the number of different people sharing them:
| Part type | Most-shared parts |
|---|---|
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, Ryzen 5 9600X, Ryzen 5 7600X |
| Storage | Kingston NV3 1TB NVMe SSD |
| CPU cooler | Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE |
| Memory | 32GB (2×16GB) DDR5-6000 kits |
| Motherboard | MSI X670E Gaming Plus WiFi |
| Graphics card | NVIDIA RTX 3060 12GB, RTX 5060 8GB |
| Thermal paste | Arctic MX-4 |
AMD dominates the CPUs, and the most-shared parts are the value picks builders tend to recommend: a budget tower cooler, a 1TB NVMe drive and a 32GB DDR5 kit.
For example, here's a gaming PC cart built from several of those parts, including an RTX 3060 12GB, a 32GB DDR5-6000 kit, the Thermalright Peerless Assassin and a Kingston NV3 SSD.
You can open it to see what someone on Reddit would see.
A shared PC build cart, as a Reddit user sees it. Every part is listed, ready to review or add to a cart in one click.
A cart link works well for builds for two reasons:
- The parts and quantities are exact. Reviewers see the specific RAM kit or SSD you picked, not a vague description, so they can spot an incompatible part or a better-value swap.
- It's ready to buy. Once the build is settled, you can send the same link to whoever is paying, such as a parent, and they add every part to their cart in one click.
