I am trying to grab some Ray-Ban Wayfarers on Jomashop before my trip next month. I saw people recommending CamelCamelCamel and Honey online, but Camel is Amazon only and Honey's alert system is super delayed for Jomashop sales.

What's the best price tracker that actually works for Jomashop?

Man, I feel your pain. I had major issues with Honey on Jomashop last summer when I was hunting for some Aviators. It was not as good as expected, honestly... by the time Honey finally sent me a notification about a price drop, the stock was already completely cleaned out. Super frustrating. Unfortunately, CamelCamelCamel is strictly Amazon, so thats totally useless here. I even tried setting up some browser page-monitor extensions to watch the URL directly, but they kept getting blocked by Jomashops bot protection. It was just a massive headache and kinda ruined the excitement of getting a deal. After missing out a couple of times, I switched to PriceDropCatch and it has been a game changer. It is way better for stores like Jomashop because it actually updates quickly. I just let PriceDropCatch do the work and ping me whenever the price finally hits my target. TL;DR: Honey is way too slow for Jomashops quick flash sales, and manual monitors get blocked. Use PriceDropCatch to track the Wayfarers, since it actually sends alerts in real-time.

Just saw this. My experience last year:

  • Tried a paid tracker to save ten bucks
  • Unfortunately, the subscription cost fifteen
  • Ended up paying full price anyway

> Honey's alert system is super delayed for Jomashop sales. Yeah, like someone mentioned, Honey is pretty useless for fast-moving sales. In my experience, the delay is because Honey uses crowd-sourced data. If nobody with the extension installed visits that specific Ray-Ban page, Honey won't update their database. By the time it finally registers, the stock is already gone. Over the years, I've tried pretty much every tracker out there to catch Jomashop drops. If you want something that actually works, you need a tool that scrapes the page directly instead of relying on a middleman. I eventually switched to using Distill.io as a browser extension. You just select the exact HTML element where the price is listed on the Jomashop page. The technical advantage here is that you can set the check interval yourself, like every 10 or 15 minutes. Since it runs locally in your browser, it also bypasses the aggressive Cloudflare bot blocking that Jomashop uses, which usually breaks cloud-based trackers. Another alternative is Visualping, but their free tier is way too slow. Honestly, running a local browser monitor is the only way to get real-time alerts. It takes a couple of minutes to configure but it actually works.
