I originally designed this tool for my use only, in order to get a GTX 480 from Newegg. Now that I have mine on order and several users have asked for this tool I decided to add a few things and release it. This tool will constantly check any Newegg product page and see if it is in stock. If so, it will display a message saying so along with a link directly to the product page. This tool runs in the system tray so it does not take up taskbar space while running. It also supports multiple instances as long as they are in separate folders. This tool is obviously BETA so it will have bugs, but it does work quite well.



Instructions:

1. Enter the URL of the Newegg/EVGA/ZipZoomFly product page you want to check.
2. Enter a name for the product (this is only used in the GUI so it can be whatever you want, comes in handy if you are running multiple instances)
3. OPTIONAL: Enable "Start Minimized" and/or "Beep when in-stock"
4. Select which site the link is from
5. Hit apply
6. You can now close the main window and it will run in the system tray.
 
BETA 1.6 - updated newegg.com checking code to work again
BETA 1.5 makes the checks run in a new thread and supports newegg's new layout
BETA 1.4 adds pre-order detection on EVGA.com
BETA 1.3 adds support for TigerDirect.com and changing the refresh interval.
BETA 1.2 adds support for EVGA.com and ZipZoomFly.com. I couldn't add Amazon.com because of the way they do their product pages.

Please report bugs here if you find any. I am open to suggestions if anyone has a cool idea. It would also be quite easy to adapt this program to almost any online store, but I decided to start with Newegg.

Awesome. Thank you so much

Nice, can this be changed to check the GTX 480 FTW listing here at EVGA?

480 Classified ftw! That's the only way I'll get one. MAYBE I'd go for a non HC 480 FTW.

Awesome App Jedi! This will be extremely useful.

doesnt work with amazon if your wondering . i tried GTX260 and a few other items .

kept telling me not in stock .

Great app for Egg tho.

Updated to BETA 1.2. This adds support for EVGA.com and ZipZoomFly.com. Amazon.com will not work with the method I am using to detect the in-stock status or I would have added it. I can look into adding other sites if anyone has suggestions.

awesome tool!  but checking once every minute is a bit excessive no? That'll put a large load on their servers especially when several people are using this at once.   I would recommend once every 30 minutes or 10, or even 5 if you're really desperate.

I love how no one can seem to keep them in-stock less than about 15 minutes..... freaking crazy

Nice program. I reported your thread, so it should get a mods attention soon

And just used this to score a 480 SC!!!!  Great, great work on this little app!

I would like to thank Jedi. I got my 480 SC. Thank you for this small but useful app. I would let my sister marry you If I had one haha.
