What is PriceGrabber
PriceGrabber.com is the first shopping comparison tool to predict the information about tax and shipping cost for consumers when comparing price which makes it become a valuable ally with any shoppers. It includes: calculate the Bottom Line Price (the price includes tax and shipping cost), store market (individuals do not have websites to sell their own products), review and rate sellers, provide details and reviews about products, compare products and send notification through email about the best and accessible price on the Internet.
The product data parameters which PriceGrabber offers is perfectly compatible with that of Magento 2. You can integrate those parameters with the products of Magento 2 to create a Product Feed because currently Magento 2 does not support creating the feed, we need to use Module to create it.
