Can you make it a standard part of every deal post (when it's applicable), to write the regular price?

The days of a "regular price" are long gone, I'm afraid.

True. A picture of the C3 graph would be super awesome.

I'm not sure. It may be a bit too technical for the casual user.

Can you have the price auto update to the current Amazon price?  Should be pretty simple.

The problem with that is, the current Amazon price is not neccisarily a deal..

Correct. This way you can easily see what the current price is. When not clicking on it right when posted.

There are solutions for this, but they don't account for coupons, etc.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

This all got real sophisticated. How about a simple line that says either the recent price, or a competitor's price, or the average price, or the range?

Let's say we came up with a way to display prices in a different format (not just in the title) - What structure would you like to see?

Was: $99.99 Sale: $59.99
or
Sale:  $59.99 Save: $40

or another format?

First is better than second. I would make it look like Amazon does, because that's what people are used to
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Of those two, the former.

I don't think either is helpful.

We already write what yesterday's price was.

Just taking a look at a few of todays deals, the "yesterday" price is inaccurate.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FWIEMSU
This was not sold by Amazon yesterday, but it was actually $798 vs $699 written on DDMS

https://www.amazon.com/Acer-KA240HQ-Abid-Monitor-Ports/dp/B06XYS6Y1J
This was $104 yesterday vs $120 written on DDMS

I think you're just looking at the list price to get yesterday's price, really you should be looking at Keepa.
