# Reported issues for Amazon.in MCP Server Pod holds 8 of 8 GitHub reports that passed its relevance review. This can include external user reports, maintainer-confirmed bugs, and concrete feature gaps. Treat them as evidence to inspect, not a count of distinct defects. Back to [Amazon.in MCP Server](/mcp/amazon-in-mcp-server). ## Most discussed ### get_product: surface bank offers, coupons, and review highlights Two things Indian shoppers ask about that the product page already shows but the tool drops: ## 1. Offers Bank instant discounts ("10% off with HDFC cards"), coupons ("Apply 200 coupon"), no-cost EMI, cashback. These often move the real price more than the listed discount. Add `offers: string[]` (short normalized lines) and `coupon` when present. ## 2. Review signal The server instructions route "reviews" questions to this tool, but it only returns rating + count. Add `rating_histogram` (5… [Read the thread](https://github.com/justadityaraj/amazon-in-mcp/issues/22) · 2026-09-23 · open · 0 comments ### Search filters and sort: price range, 4+ stars, sort order From the README roadmap ("Filter helpers: min_rating, min_reviews, under_price"). Today "SSD under 10,000 with 4+ stars" relies on keyword matching plus the model filtering 5-20 results after the fact, which misses anything past page 1. Pushing filters into the search URL means every returned card already qualifies.

Those are the links people actually paste, and they contain no `/dp/`, so `get_product` and `price_history_link` reject them with "Could not extract ASIN". A bare lowercase ASIN (`b0bdhwdr12`) is also rejected, because the bare check in… [Read the thread](https://github.com/justadityaraj/amazon-in-mcp/issues/19) · 2026-09-23 · open · 0 comments ### truncate() makes oversized responses bigger instead of smaller ## Problem [`truncate()`](https://github.com/justadityaraj/amazon-in-mcp/blob/3a29bc65435cf0db4a01de27b6d726196afe8197/src/index.ts#L79-L87) is meant to keep responses under `CHARACTER_LIMIT` (25,000 chars). When the text is over the limit it returns `JSON.stringify({ ...payload, truncated: true, truncation_message })`, which is the full payload plus two extra fields. The output gets longer, not shorter. `structuredContent` is always sent in full either way.

Delivery strings are concatenated without a separator Output: `"FREE delivery Sat, 26 SeptOr fastest delivery Today 10 am - 2 pm"` The card now renders two rows (`.udm-primary-delivery-message` and `.udm-secondary-delivery-message`) and `.text()` on the parent glues them together. Read the rows separately and either join them with ` | ` or return the primary row as `delivery` plus an optional… [Read the thread](https://github.com/justadityaraj/amazon-in-mcp/issues/11) · 2026-09-23 · open · 0 comments ### get_product: nonexistent ASIN is reported as a network failure ## Problem `get_product("B000000000")` (valid format, no such product) gets a 404 from amazon.in. `fetchHtml` correctly throws `FetchFailedError` with status 404 and does not retry, but `friendlyError` renders it as: > Error: Failed to reach amazon.in (Amazon returned 404 Not Found).
