You are onto something, I am using a mix of scraping and APIs, and the scraped products don't seem to be accurate due to a faulty CSS selector.

I am running the process once again to get some - hopefully - better data!

Was about to say, but it looks like you’re working on it!

Cool idea, it’s already been helpful to me even with the often inaccurate scraping.

Great! Looking forward to giving it another go once the data has refreshed.

Congrats on the launch!

US data should now be refreshed. Prices look much better, but I am still working on product availability. In some cases the API is returning a price and the only way around that is scraping
