Can Someone Explain Residential Proxies Vs Datacenter Proxies To Me Like I Am Five? I’m So Confused.

All right, I’ve read ten articles on this and I still don’t think I understand it.

I have a small project to scrape product prices from some sites.

Nothing crazy, just e-commerce stuff. someone told me i need residential proxies but they’re like 5x the price of datacenter and i don’t understand why i would need them for something this basic Like, what actually happens if i just use datacenter? Will I be blocked right away or is it fine for most normal sites? And what the hell is an ISP proxy? is different again.

I’m just trying to not spend money on something I don’t need. any help appreciated.
