Hello,
I understand your requirement to extract/scrape data from amazon for the catagories mentioned by you. I also understand that you want subcatagories scrapped and also you would like to get ASIN, Name, Manufacturer,model, price, bestseller etc...all delivered in JavaScript Object Notation.
I can do this work,my plan of action is to first scrape all the required data into excel and then write a VB code to pick up data from excel and deliver in JSON format. It will take me 5 days to complete since the data to be extracted is large. I can start immediately and if you take a look at the projects that have been awarded to me , you will find that I am a competent and a reliable freelancer. I hope to work for you.
Thanking you,
Regards,
Lokesh
