Customize compare prices url?
While Google is a nice general tool for comparing products and
probably is very useful in the US, I do prefer using a national web
site that I find more targetted to where I'm living and buying
books :-) As a Swedish citizen, I use a Swedish site http://www.bokfynd.nu that
compares prices from Sweden, Europe and the US, while taking into
account VAT, taxes and shipping costs.
If it were possible to customize the URL used for comparison, avit could directly go to my preferred comparison site (and probably others?) as searching based on the ISBN number is easily done at http://www.bokfynd.nu by adding the string isbn.html to the URL.
Example: looking up my edition of Robert Harris "Imperium", isbn 9780091801250 is done by fetching http://www.bokfynd.nu/9780091801250.html.
Would it be possible to add such a customization to avit?
Regards,
Filip

Hi Filip,
That's a great idea and thanks for the heads up on bokfynd.nu. I can make the app automatically default to that if you're in Sweden (and add the custom URL in the settings for advanced users and other countries.)

Hi Aral,
Defaulting to bokfynd.nu for Sweden but still have customizable url as
advanced setting would be a great change.
I'd really appreciate if you could get that in the app.
Regards,
Filip
