Product matching during ingestion #2

Closed that1guy closed 9 years ago

Hey Josh,

I know we've already discussed this enhancement but wanted to write things down. Basically it would killer if during ingestion we looked keywords in the posting using Amazon Marketplace Web Services (i.e. http://docs.developer.amazonservices.com/en_US/products/Products_ListMatchingProducts.html).

First this would really boost the algorithms capability to decide what extra information the user should include when selling an item (currently only very good with cars and real estate).

Secondly, this would enable us to roll out a product comparison feature were we could share the used items market value, derive good deals, lookup photos, link to similar items on Amazon, etc.

Cool stuff!

We've decided to do this after ingestion due to slow MWS response times.
