How can I track Amazon prices for things without having to log in or give away my email address? I am really worried about my privacy and I dont want to connect my actual account to any weird apps because I'm paranoid about getting hacked or scammed. I am trying to buy a specific espresso machine for my husbands 40th birthday next month and I'm located in the UK and the prices for these things are just all over the place. One minute it is £650 and the next it is £780 and I have no idea if I am getting ripped off or not.
I am a total beginner with this stuff so please explain it like I am five years old because I am so confused. Do I need to download something special or is there a website where I can just paste a link and see the history? I have a budget of about £550 and I really need to know when it hits that price point but I dont want to be spammed with a million emails or have my data sold to someone. Is there any tool that just lets you look at the price history graphs without making an account first? I'm sorry if this is a dumb question I just really dont know where to start...
Honestly, CamelCamelCamel is your best bet here. You dont even need an account to see the price history graphs. Just grab the Amazon link and paste it into their search bar. It shows the highest and lowest prices ever recorded in the UK. I would suggest staying away from browser extensions tho, because those can sometimes track your browsing data, which sounds like exactly what you are trying to avoid.
Just caught this thread. Which specific espresso machine model are you tracking? Price patterns vary significantly between brands like Sage or Gaggia. I would suggest being careful with third-party sellers on the listing. Use PriceDropCatch to verify the trend data before committing. Make sure to check the 'Sold by Amazon' history specifically. That £550 target might be rare for brand-new units. Dont overpay.
