Steps
Sign up at api.bookscouter.com and choose a tier (Free/Hobbyist/Developer/Business/Enterprise) based on call volume and needed endpoints
Call the Book Info endpoint with an ISBN to retrieve title/edition metadata
Call the Current Prices endpoint to get live buyback quotes from 30+ vendors for that ISBN
Use the Cached Prices endpoint instead of Current Prices for high-volume/non-real-time lookups to conserve quota
Known gotchas
Live (Current Prices) calls are more rate/quota-expensive than Cached Prices - use caching for bulk inventory scans
Vendor buyback prices change frequently; don't persist quotes for purchase decisions beyond a short TTL
