Does anyone know which browser extension tracks the price history for Amazon in Germany because I am so confused and I really want to make sure I am not overpaying for things! I am actually moving to Berlin next month for a new job and I have to buy basically everything for my first apartment since it comes totally empty which is kinda scary but also super exciting. I have my eye on this specific Sage espresso machine that costs like 500 euros right now but my friend told me that Amazon prices go up and down like crazy and I should wait for a sale but I have no idea how to tell if 500 is actually a good price or if it was like 350 last week??
I tried looking at the website but it doesnt show you what the price used to be so I think I need one of those addon things for Chrome but I dont know which one works for the German site specifically since some of them seem like they are only for the US. Sorry if this is such a basic question I literally just learned what a browser extension even was like two days ago when my brother showed me how to block ads lol. I am just really worried about blowing my whole 2000 euro furniture budget on stuff that will be half price in two weeks if I just wait a little bit. Is there a specific one that people in Germany use that is easy to install? I really need something that just shows a little chart or something on the page so I dont have to do any math or look stuff up on different websites. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be amazing because I am drowning in tabs right now trying to figure this out...
Building on the earlier suggestion about lag, Keepa is basically the technical standard for the German market. It pulls data way more frequently than others, showing price trends for new, used, and warehouse deals. This Amazon price tracker is essential because it layers everything onto one chart, so you can see if that Sage machine hits 350 often or if 500 is just the baseline.
Honestly, Ive spent way too much time tracking appliance prices since I moved, and unfortunately, most extensions are just not as good as expected for the German market. I personally had issues with CamelCamelCamel because its data refresh rates for Amazon.de are often lagging, which is disappointing when youre trying to snag an expensive Sage machine. You have to be super careful because Amazon is notorious for using fake strike-through prices to make deals look better than they actually are. Basically, Keepa is the only tool I trust now. It is more methodical and embeds a history chart right on the product page so you dont have to jump between tabs. Just watch out for those Lightning Deals tho; they often use an inflated MSRP as a reference point. Dont let the countdown timers rush you into a bad purchase, because that 500 euro price might actually be the standard rate disguised as a sale.
