I’ve heard of ones that will track a product for you and alert you if the price drops. Does anybody have one they’d recommend?

And do these sites only track at one store, or will they help you find it cheaper at multiple stores?

Thanks!

Any Canadians who have ordered custom commander decks know that you often need to use multiple vendors to find all 100 unique cards. I created a minimal web app for scraping Canadian websites for card prices.

The beta app is currently available at http://54.225.140.11/ for testing (codename bugbear).

The supported websites are : kanatacg, gauntlet games, and house of cards. I'll be adding more soon.

If there are any suggestions on how it could be improved or which other sites should be added please let me know :)

I am trying to get a head start on my New year shopping. I have a pretty good list already but I don't want to pay too much. I was trying to find a program or app that will help me find price drops on items I need. I was able to find many apps that do this but I don't know which is best. Do any of you use an app/website like this? Which is your favorite and why?

Thanks for the help!

• How do I keep track of prices

There are a lot of price trackers out there. I will list a few here

• http://Camelcamelcamel.com

• http://thetracktor.com

• http://chintzee.com

• http://keepa.com

• http://pricetracker24.net

Some of them support multiple sites as well as multiple countries while others are limited to Amazon US only. To keep track of a particular product, just go to any of the above trackers, search for the product and enter your email address or twitter id and the desired price in the specific fields. Its that simple. Here's an example:

http://camelcamelcamel.com/The-Matrix-Collection-Film-Favorites/product/B001DJLD1M

Just enter the required information and you are good to go. Once you do that you will be notified as soon as the product reaches the desired price you mentioned. Its pretty awesome. The best time to buy a product IMO is when it reaches its lowest historical price. Of course it may take a few months, and is only good for products that you don't require immediately. But if done right, it can save you a lot of money.

• How much money can be saved buying products at their lowest price

To get an idea about this, I looked at the lowest price and the usual price(the price at which you can buy the product when not on sale) and formed an excel sheet using the data. Don't confuse the list price with the usual price. The usual price is the price at which you can buy the product regularly, while the list price is the price at which the product was launched.

Upon analyzing the data, I found that you can on average save approx 30% off regular price if you buy it at the lowest price. That's $300 for every $1000 worth of products you bought. It is a lot of money. Here's the data in excel format(I collected this data from a new subreddit and I only have data for approx 40 products right now)

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B08rF-l_lyR7NW44b0RNTF85U1U/edit?usp=sharing

While most deal sites would say, always buy products at deal prices, I say, always buy products at their lowest historical price. Chances are that you won't regret it for a long time to come.

EDIT: I guess I should add this right here

Check out r/amazonLP as well(the subreddit I used to get the price data). It lists products that are at their lowest historical price currently.

Data transparency is key to getting a better understanding of the market. Realtors are terrified we'll discover what's happening and expose how the market is rigged. Most of this data is locked up but there are places to find it.

I have been looking for a way to track Home Depot pricing for quite a while and finally stumbled on PriceDropper.ca and wanted to share.

So, when I buy a game on Steam, I use SteamDB which is an incredible website that shows you the lowest recorded price of a game.

I was wondering if anybody knows of a website that does the same thing but for general products like backpacks, phones, laptops, etc.

Thanks!

Black Friday is coming up and companies are known for inflating the price and reducing it to make it seem like you are getting a deal. Are there any site I can use to check price history of previous sales or item pricing to make sure I'm not being played?

Posting this here because it is relevant.

What websites do you use for price tracking? I usually roll with camelcamelcamel for dips in Amazon, but am curious as to what you guys use.

Hey webdev community!

I'm currently working on a project, and I'm wondering if there's a website or service out there that allows users to track the historical prices of items across various online platforms. I'm specifically interested in a tool that can generate graphs or charts to illustrate how the prices of specific products have changed over time.

While I've come across tools like CamelCamelCamel and Keepa for Amazon, I'm looking for something more versatile that covers a broader range of online retailers.

Do any of you know of a website or service that fits the bill? Your insights and suggestions would be immensely helpful for my project. Thanks in advance!

Trying to keep myself ahead on the highs and lows of prices so I can make better decisions. Like even across different stores type of thing.
