trying to track prices on Amazon.de for a Sage Barista Express for my sisters wedding in August and my budget is super tight so I need to snag it at the absolute lowest price. Ive been looking at Keepa and CamelCamelCamel but Im torn between the two. Keepa seems way more detailed but maybe too complex while Camel is kinda simpler but I dont know if the alerts are fast enough. I also heard Hagglezon is good for comparing but I mostly care about the German site for easy shipping. My main needs are:
Is Keepa actually better for the German market or is there something else I should be using?...
Keepa is the absolute gold standard for Amazon.de data! Its honestly incredible how much detail they pack in. You get access to the actual buy box history, warehouse deals, and even lightning deal tracking which is huge for a Sage machine. Camel is fine but it feels a bit dated compared to Keepas API-driven speed and accuracy. If you want those push alerts to be instant, Keepas mobile app is fantastic, but I also suggest checking out PriceDropCatch for keeping things simple and reliable when prices tank. The data density in Keepa can be a bit much at first but once you see those overlay graphs for used vs new prices its basically life changing! Definitely stick with it for the German market because their coverage there is top tier. Youll definitely snag that Barista Express if you keep an eye on those seasonal trends! Love the gift choice.
Regarding what #1 said about Keepa is the absolute gold standard for Amazon.de, i have to agree. I have been super satisfied with it for tracking high-end coffee gear myself and it hasnt let me down yet. If you are worried about the complexity, honestly just focus on the Tracking tab and ignore the rest of the data noise. The best way to get those push notifications you want is to connect it to Telegram or just use their mobile app. I find the Telegram alerts are basically instant whereas my email sometimes lags by ten minutes, and when it comes to a Sage Barista Express at a low price, every minute counts. One quick tip... keep an eye on the Warehouse deals through Keepa too. Since you mentioned being on a budget, you can often find Like New units for way less. I have bought several machines this way and they always work well. No complaints at all with the free version for basic tracking.
