Download ShiftWhat is CamelCamelCamel?
CamelCamelCamel is a free, web-based price tracker focused on Amazon product listings. You paste an Amazon URL or ASIN to view multi-year price history charts, lowest/average/last prices, and new, used, and third‑party pricing trends across supported marketplaces (US, UK, CA, DE, FR, ES, IT, JP, AU).
You can create price watches and receive email alerts when a product hits your target price, and manage a watchlist or import wishlists without a paid subscription. The service offers The Camelizer browser extension to show price charts on Amazon product pages, and the site is funded through Amazon affiliate commissions. Typical users include deal-seeking shoppers and sellers or sourcing professionals checking price stability and seasonality. In Shift, you can use CamelCamelCamel alongside your shopping, email, and research apps so historic pricing data stays paired with your buying workflows.
How CamelCamelCamel works in Shift Browser
Adding CamelCamelCamel to Shift creates a compact, repeatable deals workspace. Install the app tile in Shift’s sidebar and pin it to a Space dedicated to shopping or sourcing so your tracker stays available when you need it.
From that Space you can open CamelCamelCamel side‑by‑side with an Amazon product page or your email app, paste an ASIN to load multi‑year charts, and create a price watch without juggling browser windows. Shift’s Multi‑Account feature keeps separate Amazon or CamelCamelCamel sessions signed in simultaneously so you can monitor different marketplaces or accounts. Smart Links help route Amazon URLs to the correct account, Focus Mode or a dedicated Space removes distractions during time‑boxed searches, price watch notifications arrive to the email you’ve added to Shift, and One‑Window Layout restores your pinned setup across restarts so charts and watchlists are ready when you resume work.
