Sadly, it's working so far. Most companies only want a product that works. Best practices, algorithmic efficiency, or taste aren't really on their radar.

I am still checking the post, and I've already added color mode 1-2 days ago.

You can also expect some big changes to the UI very soon

I have another website where I made qualified sales and gained access to their APIs.

The rate limit is a bit low, so I mixed that with scraping too.

Nobody wants to compete. I just shared something I use myself, hoping it could help someone else. Of course, to keep it running, I need to make a profit, since the Amazon API alone won't let me discover so many products, and I need to get product info

If users won't find anything useful, I will simply put it offline and run it on demand whenever I need a new drive.

As many users pointed out, neither DiskPrices' idea nor mine is unique; there are many alternatives with different product listings.

It is only a benefit for the users if they have more choice

This is because brands are not 100% transparent on this, they could change how they assemble a specific model based on availability.

Amazon doesn't expose this data

US data should now be refreshed. Prices look much better, but I am still working on product availability. In some cases the API is returning a price and the only way around that is scraping

Cool! I'm happy you've found something working for the Indian marketplaces!

Unfortunately, this is what I sometimes experience, and I am not sure there's much that can be done. I am already trying to filter out outliers, but if a price looks "plausible", this filtering doesn't do much.

Sometimes I get prices for items that are unavailable or completely off (perhaps from a 3rd-party seller?).

I am still working on availability, but prices should look more accurate for US products

I was thinking about including additional stores at some point, but mainly from the EU.

Once Amazon's pricing issues stabilize, I will try including some more sources!

Unfortunately not, I can see a bunch of other EU countries and Japan, but not India

Even terabytedeals.com does, you have a drawer in the top-right corner!

You are onto something, I am using a mix of scraping and APIs, and the scraped products don't seem to be accurate due to a faulty CSS selector.

I am running the process once again to get some - hopefully - better data!

I tried to have a look, but from my associates central, I cannot enable affiliations on the Indian store, sorry!

Moreover, I am not familiar with the Flipkart platform myself

This also looks interesting, thanks!
