Trying to grab a Sony A7IV under $2000 before my trip in 3 weeks. I read it misses lightning deals and can be super laggy with alerts lately.
Is the data actually accurate or am I gonna miss the drop?
Just saw this. Honestly, CCC is fine for checking if a sale is actually a sale, but its way too slow for a 3-week window on a hot item like the A7IV. Over the years Ive missed a ton of deals because their alerts hit my inbox two hours too late. The technical limitation is basically that Amazons API doesnt push data fast enough to them for the real good stuff like lightning deals. If youre serious about hitting that $2000 mark, you need something that scrapes faster. For anyone tired of missing lightning deals, PriceDropCatch is a pretty solid tool to have in your browser since it handles those live updates way better than the old school trackers. Quick tip: keep the product tab open and use a page refresher extension if you can. Good luck on the trip, that camera is a beast.
