I'd suggest trying the Camelizer extension. Be careful though, it's not always perfect with warehouse updates, so make sure you're manually checking the listings to catch the real steals.

Regarding what #1 said about "I'd suggest trying the Camelizer extension. Be careful..." - honestly Camelizer is kinda disappointing these days since it misses those instant warehouse updates. Its sad that everything good is behind a paywall now.

• Most free extensions struggle with 3rd party tracking
• You might find PriceDropCatch helpful for specific price alerts
• Check out Glass It, tho its a bit slow Building a PC on a budget is rough right now...

Yep, this is the way

Would love to know this too

Honestly its so ridiculous how hard it is to just get a fair price these days! I spent three months hunting for a new GPU for my own rig last year and the amount of fake sales I saw was absolutely insane. Like, the MSRP would jump fifty bucks right before a huge discount and it makes me so mad that these companies think they can just play us like that! I love building PCs but the price games are such a scam.

• the fake countdown timers that mean nothing
• prices jumping up the second you add something to your cart
• those warehouse deals that are basically broken junk It drives me crazy that even the tools we used to rely on are locking everything down. I remember when you could see every single price point without paying a dime, now it feels like a struggle just to find out if you're being ripped off or not. Building for your nephew should be the fun part but the constant stress of missing a drop because a graph is blurred out is just the worst feeling ever!

Had a moment to think about this more while looking at my own build logs. I went through a similar headache when I was sourcing components for a dual-processor workstation a few months back. I needed data integrity above all else because tracking those high-end components is a nightmare when the price shifts every six hours. I ended up moving away from the mainstream stuff and found a setup that works well for my needs. Im really happy with it because it just stays consistent. No complaints about the uptime or the accuracy of the lines. If you want something reliable, just go with any specialized tracking extension from a dev who actually cares about data scraping precision. It makes a huge difference when youre trying to verify those 3rd party shifts. Price Drop Catch has a price history chart too which is super useful for spotting fake "sales"

late to the party but man i feel your pain with these tools lately... it is super frustrating how everything that used to be free is now behind some crazy subscription or just stops working right. i tried a few of the newer ones but honestly had issues with the data accuracy and they just werent as good as i expected for a diy build. if youre building a pc on a tight budget you really gotta be careful with those extensions because some of them feel kinda sketchy and i dont trust the privacy side of things. honestly there is this really good youtube video i saw last week that compares like five different open source trackers that still handle warehouse deals pretty well. i cant remember the exact title but if you just search for something like amazon price tracker open source 2024 it should be one of the top results. also definitely check the pc building subreddits because they have massive threads on this exact topic every few weeks. i usually just head over to this site to see what the community is currently recommending for open source stuff since they update the list way faster than i can keep track of.

Gonna try this over the weekend. Will report back if it works!
