Agreed, but I'm not sure if they'll be able to keep at it

I looked at building something similar a while back but found most of the big retailers (Amazon, eBay) prohibited you from storing historical price data. Unless that's changed I'm not sure their approach is going to be feasible in the long term.

That should be easy - store just the graph, not the actual values :)

Thanks! blush

We put a lot of time into the design. We've held off any sort of "rate my startup" to see if we make it to the next round.

Is another similar service - http://camelcamelcamel.com/

I'm afraid I like Shopobot more. Camel is waaaaay too crowded, just like the myriad of other price aggregators. Just too much on the same page.

We're about to launch a new design that I hope solves this problem:

Camel was one of the first for Amazon shopobot just looks to be a copy of the same idea. Look at how much price history camel has. It goes back over 3 years for some stuff.

There always is! LOL
