I've never understood Oddschecker. Ok, there may be a little value in some prices, but in general there isn't.

However, they were bought by a private equity group in 2021 for £155m!!!!

Now they seem to be trying to charge people for the service as well, can't see that taking off: -

Used to love it back in the day. When you could lump on and shift prices and watch the miserly bookies run for cover. The nervy wait in the bookies while the traders accepted/trimmed your bet by phone. You knew you were getting value if they shaved 1/4 or up to 1/2 point off. Top buzz. On the outrights and they thought I was an arber or a just a monkey. Memory lane.
Agree. not sure how they make money on that.

That brings back old memories. That and Easyodds. From what I remember, the frustrating thing about Oddschecker was that it refreshed the page every 30 seconds while I was reading the prices.
