    Hi all,

    I have come across this website which emails you when the price of a product you are watching goes down in price. this must be some kind of API tech. but I have looked at the amazon web services and that is like looking at Chinese with all the different options.

    Any ideas on how these guys done this?

    regards

    with a lot of hard work :p

    This isn't something people here will really know lol. This is advanced scripting having their script integrate with amazons API. Find yourself an experienced coder and they will be able to do it.

    Yeah,

    Was i was also thinking a coder would be needed to sort something out. I was wondering actually which Amazon API they might be using as there are a hell of a lot to choose from at the amazon webservices page.

    thanks for the reply anyway!
