Expanded with monitor targeting guidance and alert interpretation best practices.
How monitoring works
Choose a search result or product search that you want to watch.
Set a target price and submit your email address.
Shopping Concierge re-runs the search and notifies you if a result drops below your threshold.
Best use cases
Monitoring works best for products with regular pricing movement, including electronics, appliances, and seasonal home goods where it pays to wait for a cleaner deal.
How to set better targets
Use current verified listings as a baseline. A realistic target usually sits below the current median but above historically suspicious outliers.
If your search is broad, add variant details first so monitor alerts track comparable products over time.
