Most online retailers require you to pull price information every time a page is loaded. This ensures the price isn't stale. We should start off including at least Amazon and Powell's. Need to research Amazon's ToS and if using Amazon data is allowed if also using Powell's affiliate link.

Unfortunately Powell's is not accepting applications for 'Partner's at this point, but they expect to start again in 2019. I will create a new Powell's specific case and continue with Amazon price integration.

Another API to research is the isbnDB. Looks like they have price information, will need to see what the affiliate rates for those are like.

Looks like Amazon and Powell's are the best bet for monetization. Will work with Amazon for now.
