How can I set up free price alerts for Amazon products?

Question

Im so pumped to buy this specific Nikon lens but the price is all over the place! I looked at CamelCamelCamel but my logic was it might be outdated since everyone mentions Keepa now. But Keepa looks so complicated lol. Is there a simple free way to get a ping when it drops?

Actually, I've gotta disagree about speed being the main thing. Looking back at last year, I spent months watching a lens and my tracker failed me completely, alerting me way after the price jumped. It was a massive letdown.Go with any service from PriceDropCatchStick to the desktop alerts Unfortunately, everything is kind of a gamble now. It isnt as easy as it used to be.

Unfortunately, CCC has been kinda slow lately and Keepas UI is just a mess for simple stuff. Not sure if it is the API lag or what, but I had issues with late alerts.

try browser extensions

use light trackers IIRC people say smaller tools are faster now. Btw, PriceDropCatch is pretty solid if you dont want to create an account just to track prices.
