How to see the price history of any Amazon product (2024)

Amazon's product prices fluctuate a lot, especially around Prime Day and Black Friday. Those price variants can drop on Amazon even lower than you think if you know which price tracking tools to use. Whether you want to purchase smart home products or Kindle e-readers, use third-party tools to track the price history of any item. One of the most reliable ways to check an Amazon product's price history is camelcamelcamel. We show you how to make the most of it.

What is camelcamelcamel?

The easiest way to view an Amazon product's price history is by checking a dedicated Amazon price tracker. Visit the camelcamelcamel homepage to search for product prices, view price history charts, and set up notifications for products you're interested in.

Amazon price tracking is set by location. If you don't regularly shop at Amazon.com, you can check products bought from other locations (for example, Amazon.ca). The camelcamelcamel web page includes sections for Popular Products and Top Amazon Price Drops, where you can sort products by type and select filters like Top Daily Drops.

The only downside of using camelcamelcamel is that it only factors in the price of a product. It doesn't include the cost of shipping and handling, but it lets you know if an item qualifies for Prime Shipping.
