If you still use Amazon, get the CamelCamelCamel addon. It shows you a graph of how the price of an item has changed, so you can see if a sale is really a discount of just one of these fake "sales".

Easy to use, doesn’t need an account, doesn’t even need to be installed as an extension. Works for non-US amazon.

Thank you for promoting this!

Is it still working? When I tried it looked like Amazon blocked API and the prices available were off 3rd party sellers.

It worked when I was using it last week. It's always a little behind.

For some things the "3rd party seller" history matches amazon, a lot of videogames have the same promotions across multiple stores.

Not for me. Prices are months behind and Amazon pricing is unavailable.
