How to Find Amazon Deals

[SomeGuy]

Alright, so if anyone saw my other thread on the deals for the Nicholson files or Mitutoyo indicators and wondered how I come across them....here's the answer:

Thanks for all the tips. I have used some of methods, but now a couple more ways of finding deals is very welcome.

@SomeGuy I'll have to watch your video a second time. I'm slow to absorb some of these new price/purchases assist tools.
- in the Amazon example ~1:37 you show how it provides price change info. Does this feature work (only) when in Cart? I don't think I've gotten any info when in Wishlist.
- the 2 apps you mention, Camel & Keepa, are those standalone or installed as browser add-on tools? I'm always leery of installed which probably explains why I'm an internet Neanderthal.
- does it make distinction of item location or your location (USA vs Canada). That's what I find takes all the time, figuring out how much a good USA deal would end up being landed

Now I have to go back to my Knipex plier price comparison (old skool spreadsheet mode), those have been on my wish list for a while ow. Damn you for using that as example. LOL

- That's only in cart that it shows the list of price changes. So do a save for later, and then each time you go back to cart any prices that have changed since you were last on that page will be shown...it only shows the changes once so you have to pay attention
- They're both just websites, completely free to use, don't even need to register an account, nothing to install. https://keepa.com/#!deals and https://ca.camelcamelcamel.com/
- Yes, keepa you can pick which amazon in the top right corner, camel the link above is for amazon.ca but you can go to the US one too

There's a few good Knipex deals floating on amazon right now, 10-20% lower but nothing 50%+ off right now

Ah, I see on Keepa now you can change the region to dot ca or whatever. Very interesting, thanks!
