Amazon Watcher - Freeware
« on: April 23, 2011, 12:34 AM »
Hello,
here is a nice tool I found on the Internet. It is called Amazon Watcher, is freeware and can observe Amazon sites for price changes.

Interesting. You'd normally expect to see this kind of thing for eBay. I wouldn't have expected it for Amazon, though. :)

Thanks masu. :Thmbsup:

I've used this one in the past:
http://www.priceprotectr.com/index.jsp

Not sure if Amazon still refunds the difference if their price goes down within a certain time period after you bought a product, but it did so a few years back so I put all purchases in here and it would email me if I could claim a refund.

edit: doesn't have a price protection policy anymore.
