Certain products have a longer buy cycle. Typically people tend to shop and compare more on higher priced products and technology products. So if you are promoting computers for instance you could lose a lot due to the session cookie. So you may want to give thought to the types of products that have a shorter sales cycle.

A possible upsite though, I would think Amazon's conversions are pretty good due to the customer reviews and their reputation.
