There are browser extensions to automatically compare prices for you already, is there something insufficient about those extensions or is it just that they aren't widely known and used?
- murphm8 12y agoDo you have a recommendation for which extension or extensions to use?
- hsshah 12y agoThis is mentioned by someone else on the top as well. I love camelcamelcamel and it's chrome browser extension. You can limit it to be able to run only when you are on amazon domain.
- newscracker 12y agoApart from camelcamelcamel, there's also Invisible Hand [1] for Firefox, Chrome and Safari that provides price comparison and updates. I doubt if it can avoid browser sniffing or fingerprinting though. Also, it works only in the U.S., the UK and Germany and it makes money from commissions paid by some retailers. Any kind of comparison is better than no comparison at all. :) [1]: http://www.getinvisiblehand.com/ http://www.getinvisiblehand.com/
- altern8 12y agoI would say not widely known/used... I didn't know they changed prices like that :-/
- eloisant 12y agoApparently these browser extensions should spoof various user agents, I'm not sure they do that. They're mostly about comparing prices from different sites.
