Random Example:
1. There is a Fuji web page that sells refurbished Fuji cameras:
http://shop.fujifilm.co.uk/digital-cameras/refurbished-digital-cameras?cat=83
2. I want to buy a specific camera that is not often there:
Fuji HS50EXR camera.
So, is there an app for Windows 10 that will continuously watch for this camera on this web page and will email me when one appears?
Thanks,
Mike

Why would you want an app ?
Their is a button that says notify me when in stock so they will email you if they get it in.I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Competitions Time, Shopping & Freebies boards, Employment, Jobseeking & Training boards If you need any help on these boards, do let me know.

Hi Sarah, thanks, but that was just a made-up random sample and I do not want a camera from the Fuji site - I want an app that will do this on any site?
There must be one surely?

No. There isn't one that will cater for every single web page.0 -

Thanks. How about one that will cater for some websites?

A fairly good website that I know of that tracks items on the web is camelcamelcamel though only tracks prices on Amazon, including third party sellers. I was also going to suggest checking if anyone has posted a decent deal on HotUKDeals as well though the deals posted on there for the specific camera you're after appear to be expired.
There's also curiua.com as well. This checks prices across Amazon's sites in France, Germany, Italy and Spain, converts them into pounds and compares them to the UK and some times pulls up deals on eBay as well though this website doesn't appear to be showing anything on offer there either.
You can also add camelcamelcamel to your browser as well.
There's also zeezaw which is similar to camelcamelcamel.
I'm probably not being much help though these are the best I can come up with.
Good luck.

Thanks Lugh,
I appreciate your reply a lot. It may well be that there is not a perfect answer, but I shall follow up the suggestions that you have provided.
Re "the specific camera I was after", I wasn't. That was just a random example that I made up to illustrate the kind of app that I am looking for.
Best regards,
Mike0
