That's a popular request. I'm wondering if I should just remove the Bunnings Marketplace listings entirely.

Yup, still trying to figure out why it intermittently does this. I can't reproduce it though. :S

Thanks mate. There was an issue just after I left for a Christmas do.

Not permanent. I'll see if I can get some time this weekend to look into it. Currently there is no way to see historical items.
jazoom replied to NitroJolt on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
Same network issue. Getting new hardware to fix it.
jazoom replied to FlexBargain on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
Just a network issue
jazoom replied to Oipjo on Just Launched: Official Browser Extension for Price Hipster with Support for Amazon.com.au
Thanks mate. I have thought about whether it's worth my time to keep running but comments like this encourage me to keep it going.
jazoom replied to SimBech on Just Launched: Official Browser Extension for Price Hipster with Support for Amazon.com.au
Unlikely. That would actually create a lot more work for me.
jazoom replied to goober on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
I can't remember the details but the product feed was not available I think.
jazoom replied to tryagain on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
I'm pretty sure it's not set to any particular store
jazoom replied to wisdomtooth on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
Me too. Unfortunately this is the busiest I've ever been at the moment. Got a lot of stuff going on.
jazoom replied to wisdomtooth on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
It's not, so outsourcing is not an option. I am actually halfway through recreating the whole site with a new design. Just gotta finish.
jazoom replied to wisdomtooth on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
Yeah the emails definitely need an overhaul. I'm having a hard time finding time at the moment to work on it. Hopefully I'll get there…
jazoom replied to Doyen on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
If the prices are out of date then the history won't necessarily be incorrect. "Out of date" prices usually just means you're seeing it…
Yup, unfortunately it's been a while. Woolworths has been clear about their lack of support for price transparency and I had to remove them…
> But even if it is, in what world does someone go from claiming to be going broke to doubling their revenue. It's not doubling revenue.…
jazoom replied to hayne on Would You Support an Increase in The Medicare Levy (for New Services or to Maintain Full Bulk Billing GPs)?
FYI they work as interns and house officers in hospital. They usually work as registrars in private practice. Also I doubt most GPs get…
jazoom replied to Grunntt on Would You Support an Increase in The Medicare Levy (for New Services or to Maintain Full Bulk Billing GPs)?
You may like to check. I've been at many practices and know many other GPs and the range I've seen is 45% to 70%. I've never seen higher…

I'm in the process of fixing some things. There may be some intermittent issues.
jazoom replied to njwozb on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
Thank you for that insight. It is interesting.
jazoom replied to njwozb on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
The Coles and Bunnings websites are much more temperamental than other websites crawled by Price Hipster. Sometimes it works well and…
jazoom replied to StonedWizard on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
That's not presently possible, sorry
jazoom replied to HairyChickens on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
Unfortunately the server cluster did some weird stuff while I was at work. I just got it all fixed this morning. Should be working now.

I can't remember what status code, but there was no useful error message.
jazoom replied to isthisreallife22 on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
That's all part of scraping/crawling. It doesn't make a difference in this case. In fact, I was tapping into the Woolworths' API directly…
jazoom replied to fredblogs on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
It stopped working altogether. I'm quite sure they outsource their crawler blocking to another company. I believe they do IP-based blocking…
jazoom replied to fredblogs on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
If it could be integrated with Price Hipster, then yes. Price Hipster actually can already crawl BigW and Woolworths' websites. It's just…
jazoom replied to fredblogs on I spent the past year creating Price Hipster, a product search engine and price watching website for the OzBargain community!
The amount of time I've been able to spend on it has been put towards maintaining it and keeping it running rather than new features. I…
