I am using BeautifulSoup and using UserAgent while making request. Amazon is blocking my calls though I did add a sleep method to avoid it. Is there anyway to deal with it? I know there's an API available but I doubt I would get what I am looking for.
What I want to get product details based on ASIN and it returns all price offers by different sellers using Amazon Prime shipping option, the example URL given here.

1. Amazon can detect Bots and block their IPs. Since Amazon prevents web scraping on its pages, it can easily detect if an action is being executed by a scraper bot or through a browser by a manual agent. A lot of these trends are identified by closely monitoring the behavior of the browsing agent.
Web scraping allows you to extract relevant data from the Amazon website and save it in a spreadsheet or JSON format. You can even automate the process to update the data on a regular weekly or monthly basis. There is currently no way to simply export product data from Amazon to a spreadsheet.
Is there anyway to deal with it?
Yes... you comply with their acceptable use policy.
If it's not available from an API, you're not authorized to scrape it.
Even if you successfully scrape it, you're still not authorized to use it.
