>Also, you can set up a secondary account and auto-forward emails relatively quickly to a forwarding address linked to Paribus.

Oh, this is interesting, and should get around most of the privacy concerns. One question: how do you get the money back from the retailer? I had assumed that Paribus sent an email from the account, but that won't actually work if my email is zck@example.com and I give you access to zck-shopping@example.com. If you email Amazon from zck-shopping@example.com, would they refund zck@example.com? Or do you send me an email saying something like "Amazon dropped prices on $PRODUCT_X, contact them here<link> to get a refund"?

Hah ;) I love that you caught on on this quickly. Shoot me an email and I can go into more detail on how we do this. We handle all the communication on your behalf and have a couple of tricks up our sleeves.
Cool, I'd love to chat. Unfortunately, the "email" field in HN profiles is private, and you don't have an "about" filled out.

My email is zkanfer@gmail.com.
