How can I avoid fake discounts during Amazon Prime Day?

Question

I'm really anxious about getting ripped off on a $150 air fryer next week. I saw people mention CamelCamelCamel and Keepa but then I read that sellers sometimes just create new listings to hide the price history?

So my logic of checking trackers might not even work and I'm totally stuck on how to actually spot the fake markups...

Regarding what #1 said about Honestly, dont sweat it too much! I love...i actually disagree because those listing swaps are getting way too common. Its disappointing how often Keepa misses brand new ASINs.Copy the model number from the specs and search it elsewhere.Sellers tweak one letter in the SKU to hide history.Honestly, I use Price Drop Catch to compare other retailers. It catches when Amazon is just matching a fake MSRP.

Honestly, dont sweat it too much! I love hunting for deals and you can totally win this. Even if they swap listings, there are ways to win:

Look for Sold by Amazon items. They rarely pull that listing swap junk.

Check review dates. If there are thousands from last year, the price history is legit!

Cross-check with Target or Best Buy. Its gonna be a fantastic Prime Day!
