Interesting. Is the model to wait until you get enough people on the list for a particular product, then run a discounted bulk order with the vendor, and move a slightly less discounted batch to the people on that list? Demand-driven arbitrage model, essentially?
Haha, yeah - this is exactly how we started at Decide.com. Prices changing all the time is a very real problem. I think one of the biggest learning we had at Decide is that people's desire to 'impulse shop' usually is much stronger than their willingness to wait, on items where the price movements aren't as drastic.
I set up an alert for GTA 5 and received a notification today that the price had gone down by 28%! Hooray! Except, when I went to Pricify to check out my watched items, the list was empty. Where'd GTA 5 go?
Also, what's going on with the numbers in trending? http://joeysharesthings.com/3S3Z...

This is similar to what @zealoustiger and decide.com did and sold to Ebay. I like the social / Pinterest like approach.
