    I really like this plugin and am very interested in the pro version, but I’m having this problem sporadically.

    I search for an item and sometimes after a few seconds, I get this error message. Doesn’t happen all the time. Sometimes when the search takes longer it shows results and I don’t get this error.

    Can you tell me if there is a fix? Thanks!

    This is the error.

    Error: HTTP request status fails: 503 – Service Unavailable. Server replay: <?xml version=”1.0″?> <ItemSearchErrorResponse xmlns=”http://ecs.amazonaws.com/doc/2011-08-01/”><Error&gt;RequestThrottled<Message>AWS Access Key ID: AKIAJAPH7ILJ6C6D2JHA.

    It’s in the docs here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/latest/DG/TroubleshootingApplications.html

    The request limit for each account is calculated based on revenue performance. Each account used to access the Product Advertising API is allowed an initial usage limit of 1 request per second. Each account will receive an additional 1 request per second (up to a maximum of 10) for every $4,600 of shipped item revenue driven in a trailing 30-day period (about $0.11 per minute).

    It says “1 request per second” but we also notice that this limit is lower for inactive accounts.

    1. Do not set more than 10 search results because it requires additional API requests.
    2. Do not update prices too often.
