I love camelcamelcamel. How is it gamed? I trust it when I see a long and varied price history of an item.

Coupon codes, exclusive pricing (business, prime, etc), different product listings - all not reflected in the history AFAICT. Never mind that for many products, Amazon has consistently high prices. CCC is handy, but it's just one data point.
So, what's the expectation. People can't know the price of everything, checking software seems a good approach
