How we keep prices up to date
- Prices are kept up to date via a price fetching script (we call the “Autobot”), this tool parses the destination URL’s HTML and retrieves the price from the source code.
- Autobot runs when a user visit a product page and the price date is older than 24hrs.
- Autobot looks for specific class or ID’s in the destination page source code.
