Home Depot Inventory checker

[Tribalvision]

Is there another inventory checker for Home Depot? The link I have hasnt worked for a few weeks.

sd.site88.net/homedepot.html

I just used that same link a couple of times yesterday and it worked fine. They may just be getting too much traffic.

How do these sites work? I'm just curious. Are they tapping into some kind of data feed or something?

You're welcome!

I'm sure these sites just use Home Depot's own inventory checking feature, they allow you to enter the SKU and store ID in a web form on their site then construct a URL in the same format that you'd get if you clicked on the 'check inventory' button under an item on the Home Depot web site. The results returned by Home Depot are framed by the originating site.

See the URL below:

http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/catalog/servlet/Bopis2OverLay?
storeId=10051&R=100028523&storeSkuNum=702935&locStoreNum=4603&
quantity=1

You can copy and paste that into your browser, changing the Store Number and SKU to whatever you want.
