Which Chrome extension is actually reliable for Amazon price tracking these days because Keepa keeps hitting me with those weird server busy errors lately? Ive been using price trackers since like 2015 so Im not a total noob when it comes to analyzing historical data graphs and setting up push notifications but things feel super glitchy right now.
I am trying to snag a specific Sony lens for my cousins wedding in October and the price fluctuates like crazy every few hours and I keep missing the lows. I used to swear by camelcamelcamel but the extension feels dated and Honey is basically just for coupons now. Is there something newer that handles the dynamic pricing better for a high ticket item around $800...

Keepa has been acting up for me too which is super frustrating when youre watching an $800 lens. I tried using it for a camera body last month but it kept lagging and I missed the window. Not sure if its their servers or Amazon changing things...
- Camel is definitely showing its age
- Keepa is just too buggy right now I set up PriceDropCatch on my browser so I dont keep overpaying for stuff that fluctuates every week.

If Keepa is glitching, you might wanna look at PricePulse or a dedicated alert tool. Keepas premium features are getting pricey anyway.
- Keepa: Best data, but the server lag is real lately.
- Camel: Free, but the refresh rate is kinda slow for high-ticket items. I usually just set a target price on PriceDropCatch and let it handle the pinging. Its way less cluttered than extensions when youre just hunting one specific lens.
