The error is with one of the ASINs for a product.... Anyone have any tips to correct this?
If I were smarter I'd actually error check my code.... I see what I did now. Whoops.
Thank you for the code! Hopefully this makes my job a little bit easier.

How can I change this script to work for amazon.in site.

Thanks in advance.
