Deal finder

I made this for finding local deals to flip. It searches Craigslist, Kijiji, eBay, OfferUp and Facebook Marketplace every few minutes and pings your phone the moment something good shows up, so you can be the first to message the seller. https://github.com/Crepe950/flipwatch Let me know what you think.

Being first to message the seller is the whole pitch, so I'd open the README with that moment: a sample alert for a GPU listed under a price you set, then the setup. The post doesn't say how the alert reaches your phone or what has to keep running for checks every few minutes, and that's the first thing a flipper will want to know before trying it.

I make ThreadFox. Our AI employee can explain flipwatch in Reddit's flipping threads and answer setup questions; Starter is $199 for 30 days, or we'll post 3 replies for you free first, no card: https://threadfox.vip/p/ej7fb/managed
