I realised that there may be a gap in the market for a tool like this after writing a quick python script that helped me find a laptop for my brother.
This is a fairly early prototype of such a service -- it's written in Python (Django) with celery and celerybeat handling the stock checking. I'd like to add more features, like being able to filter by machine spec or condition -- if there's any interest then that'll come shortly.
At some point I might try and get some beer tokens by joining an affiliate scheme and getting a few percent on every sale, but for the time being I thought I'd get this out there ASAP to try and assess how much use this kind of thing would be to people.

I've open source the code here: https://github.com/josephredfern/OutletMeKnow. It's fairly rough, any comments/contributions would be welcomed.
Oh, and SSL is coming imminently. LetsEncrypt's new rate limits have caused a bit of a delay but it's on the way. [edit: now live]
