Hi all,

We would like to scrape Amazon products with photos and import them into our Magento website by providing a URL to scrape from.

The solution has to be as simple as possible.

Our website is:

[url removed, login to view]

We have a dedicated server with full access. It is an Apache/CentOS/MySQL/WHM/cPanel environment.

For example, we would like to scrape all 9000+ products from the URL:

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_hi_3?rh=n%3A172282%2Cn%3A!493964%2Cn%3A541966%2Cn%3A1232597011&hidden-keywords=-B0089RPUHO+-B00DG0NUEE&ie=UTF8&qid=1385551805

Another sample URL:

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_nr_p_89_2?rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Aspigen+case%2Cp_89%3ASpigen|SGP&keywords=spigen+case&ie=UTF8&qid=1391908765&rnid=2528832011

Rules:

1) Scraped products need to match our product columns (we will provide you with a CSV file so that you know how to match the columns)

2) Your scraper will need to interact with our MySQL database and archive products that are no longer available (the scraped data needs to go directly into our database, we are not interested in creating XML or CSV files for import)

3) We must have the ability to scrape by brand, category, price range, Amazon store etc. Basically any URL should work.

4) We need to scrape all product info as directed, for example: SKU, title, availability, price, colour, description, short description and so on

5) You need to be able to employ solutions to defeat current anti-scraping methods: proxies, random scraper pauses etc

6) The scraper needs to have an UPDATE function where we can scrape a URL and only update certain attributes (ie. price, availability) - that way we don't have to scrape all items in full again (and this will save a lot of time on our end)

7) You must create a Magento ADMIN menu for the scraper (we are not interested in running scripts via SSH etc)

So in a nutshell, we enter a URL in our Magento ADMIN and the scraper starts importing all products into our MySQL database.

If you need to ask questions, ask before you bid.

Good luck!
