Sorry, I had a big comment/explanation when I submitted this, but looks like it was lost.
That is - mightbuy search is faster than google by being slower. For example, search for "Khunu Chimera" (a yak wool sweater) on mightbuy.it/search. It should return picture and prices (much more slowly than google).
But you don't have to navigate to the sub links. And google.com/shopping doesn't have the Khunu chimera at all.

i tested it..its slower than Google actually..when i made search for Apple IPhone 4, google did it in 3 secs while mightbuy took 6 secs that too might buy provided only 5 results while google gave a lot many...
I meant to have a lot of qualifications in the submission: Faster than google by being slower!
- you need to find a price
- you need to find a image
- you if google front page doesn't show you that, you have to count browsing to the link, opening it up, finding price.
When I googled Apple Iphone 4, google still wins, as one of their ads shows me a iphone 4 with a price.
But for some more unique brands, something more interesting, often it takes a browse into the site to get an image and price. Google will always get initial results faster.

ok...the points u mentioned are not there in Google..you should say that it is more featured than google in terms of searching a product....
For example: Got to http://www.mightbuy.it/search - search for a unique product, like "Khunu Chimera" (a yak wool sweater). You should get images and a price. Slowly, but it gives you price and image.
Then, search Khunu Chimera on Google. You get a links fast, but then have to go to the page, find a image and price. All together, slower. If you try http://www.google.com/shopping - you get nothing.
Uses node.js server (and rails).
