As Patrick Karcher noted, you're missing a slash.
Also, you shouldn't have a space before :eq(1)
.
$('a[href=same/link/to/stuff/]:eq(1)');
Spaces in selectors imply that the item after the space is a descendant of the item before the space.
The way you had it, you were attempting to select the second descendant element of a[href=same/link/to/stuff/]
.
