Introducing Price Alerts

I'm proud to announce that you can now set a price alert on any album you've got your eye on. If you're in the mood to shop for vinyl, but want to wait until the price drops, Vinyl Deals will fire off an email to let you know. Let's check out how to set it up.

Setting a price alert is easy!

Let's say you've had your eye on Lazaretto by Jack White. As I write this, it's $23.37 on Amazon, but a few months ago, it was $19.88. If you want to get notified the next time it drops that low, scroll to the bottom of the page, enter 19.88 in the box and click "Save Alert".

If this is your first alert, we'll ask you to login with your Facebook, Twitter, or Google account. This lets us keep track of your alerts and give you the ability to change them.

After approving the login for Vinyl Deals, you'll see a box to enter your email address into. This is the address we'll send the alert to. Don't worry, you can change it later.

That's it!

Now, on the album page, your current alert price is set. You can raise or lower your desired price and click "Save Alert" to make changes.

There's also a page to see all your alerts.

Click on "Manage Alerts" in the upper right-hand corner and you'll see a list of your current alerts. This page is also where you can change the email address that you want the notifications to go to.

Don't care about an album anymore? Delete it and it's gone!

I've got more ideas about the alerts, so stay tuned for more options. If you've got any questions or comments, hit us up on our contact page or on Facebook!
