Manual price checks across several e-commerce platforms take time and are error-prone. Buyers often compare list price only, missing shipping differences, seller risk, or near-term deal timing.

Typical scenarios
- Comparing electronics prices across Amazon, Walmart, and regional stores.
- Checking whether to buy now or wait for an upcoming sale window.
- Validating that low-priced listings are not from low-trust marketplace sellers.
How to setup
- Define target stores by region and product-equivalence rules.
- Configure comparison output fields (price, shipping, estimated total, link, seller quality).
- Add optional coupon/seasonal-sale checks before final recommendation.

FAQ
Is the cheapest listed price always the best choice?
No. Total cost, shipping speed, seller reliability, and return policy should be considered together.
Can this work for local stores too?
Yes, if those stores expose searchable product pages or feeds.
How do we avoid comparing non-equivalent products?
Use strict matching rules for model number, storage/capacity, and included accessories before scoring deals.
