Is there a website or software that tracks price changes on Amazon and sends out an email to alert you of a change?

I use camelcamelcamel, but that is only for price drops. I would also like to know about prices rising.

    Amazon has an API that can be used to fetch this information. There are some companies that have created software products that use this API to instantly reprise products. You can do a quick google search to find these companies. Also, here's some good to know information for you:

    When you list products on Amazon as a professional seller, the user interface within Seller's account will automatically let you know if you have the lowest price offer for the item. If you don't see this option, you can enable it from within the preferences settings. They also send e-mails to Sellers on low price opportunities.

      Well, have you checked the AmazonPriceTracker, it is the one of the best price checker software, by which you can easily fetch the price changing history. It not only provides you ranking and reviews, but also provide you basic details about your products and pricing.

      I recently just talk to the owner, and his system can only track 200,000 items. Anymore than that it will put too much to the server and will slow things down for everyone.. Although this website is great, I need a backup plan.. Do you know any other website that is better? Anybody has a spreadsheet I can use to track amazon items? This is very important to my business.

    It works fine. I get an email whenever the price goes up or down and when the item is sold out.

    The Tracktor says it only alerts you to price drops. Someone mention eglim.com but it is not free.

      Thanks bro.. You saved my life.. Price chirp is so convenient, and I don't need to input all my amazon/ebay listing on excel.. I can just login to pricechirp, and there it GOES. I don't know what business you are in, but it seems cool.. Feel free to share your business if you have the time. More people should know about this website.. If you know an alternative please do share.. Glad I found this website....

      Yes Eglim can track price changes but you wont get email for such changes and the tool is not free. Other trackings which you can get with Eglim include BSR, Organic rank, reviews tracking. Other than that it can compare two or more Amazon Products, Can show Amazon market trends and many other features.

    Pricechirp.com is currently tracking over 168,000 Amazon products. While there is probably a limit on the number of products pricechirp can track without system changes, the number is well over 200,000 as stated above. These changes are actively being developed and being implemented before they are needed.
