Guess this is the first time I can say "I'm glad you thought it was a terrible idea" because you use it too much.<br /><br />We will look into the 15 deal issue to see what might be causing that. What browser and operating system do you use? This will help us replicate it and hopefully track it down.JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16683639763296393501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-31269928189384647562014-05-15T19:05:55.779-06:002014-05-15T19:05:55.779-06:00This tool was a terrible idea, I've spent at l... This tool was a terrible idea, I've spent at least close to 125 dollars in 2 days on 2 boxed nes games and a few great titles. But seriously the app works awesome and my only question is I don't know if it's just my laptop but after about 15 deals pop up the app will continuously list the same deal until I refresh the page, Other then that Awesome job!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-23636688894075791422014-01-08T14:47:41.282-07:002014-01-08T14:47:41.282-07:00Does the price and savings quoted include SHIPPING...Does the price and savings quoted include SHIPPING CHARGES???....if not it seems it would not be as useful or accurate as it should be as shipping can vary greatly from free To $$$Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-57780921302920043132014-01-08T14:43:41.468-07:002014-01-08T14:43:41.468-07:00I would also like to see filters by system and eve...I would also like to see filters by system and even game titles/conditions as well-otherwise you will be getting endless notifications of items you're not interested in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-76886479439486993452014-01-07T13:38:20.895-07:002014-01-07T13:38:20.895-07:00@anonymous - There is not a way to filter by conso...@anonymous - There is not a way to filter by console right now, but this has been the most requested addition to the tool. We are working on these types of filters and hopefully will have them live soon.JJ Hendrickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10255138459888881579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-73634409067024310542014-01-06T20:28:54.533-07:002014-01-06T20:28:54.533-07:00Is there a way to make it search for just specific...Is there a way to make it search for just specific consoles?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-87057387102688948292013-12-31T10:00:09.645-07:002013-12-31T10:00:09.645-07:00Thank you for the feedback everyone.

I have submitted those suggestions with others from the tool so we can focus on the most requested ideas first.<br /><br />Many organizations offer API tools to access their data. eBay and Amazon do and we use them on our site. The terms of service for API's are all different but usually they require you to send traffic to their website.<br /><br />If you ever want to see if a site offers an API simple search the website name and 'API' - ie "eBay API", "google api", etc and you will usually find it as the first result.<br /><br />We are working on API tools for PriceCharting as well. Hopefully we will have something to announce in the next few months.JJ Hendrickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10255138459888881579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-82824027846351674202013-12-31T09:11:20.069-07:002013-12-31T09:11:20.069-07:00I've had this running on and off for less than...I've had this running on and off for less than a day and saw some great buys come through. I agree that having the price column first would help. <br /><br />A bit of a logistical question - are there publicly available API tools provided by ebay, amazon, craiglist, etc to grab this data periodically? Wondering if this data mining is freely available or if it is a service they provide at a cost.<br /><br />Thanks for the great tools and pricing guides!Andres Tamezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08630078684171896740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-29001796751405280472013-12-30T10:24:15.621-07:002013-12-30T10:24:15.621-07:00Great idea!

The thing is that now, all of the pricecharting community will be fighting over this!<br />Looks like it's working really well.<br /><br />Personally, I'd put the price first and the saving after, since I kept thinking the saving was the actual price. I jumped when I saw Mr Gimmick for 55$... Sadly it was 399$ ;) I'll get used to it.<br /><br />I'll have to keep myself from spending to much, this thing is great for impulse buys!<br /><br />Thank you again for theseAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15005283533935298266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166264252243602432.post-39775069449047771612013-12-28T19:47:53.050-07:002013-12-28T19:47:53.050-07:00Well, this definitely beats hitting the refresh bu...Well, this definitely beats hitting the refresh button :) <br /><br />I used this for a few minutes, and saw some good stuff. Maybe after a week or so of trying this out, I'll be able to give more detailed feedback. <br /><br />Thanks for another great tool on your already awesome website!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
