    Try changing the &ReponseGroup=Full to &ReponseGroup=Large there you will get the whole data, but it includes price also. It will be in attaributes tag.

    NOTE : Try changing it to &ReponseGroup=Small you will get lesser data, but i am not sure price is there.

    Here is the code for amazon product advertising API

    <?php
error_reporting(0);

define('AWS_API_KEY', 'your key');
define('AWS_API_SECRET_KEY', 'your key');
define('AWS_ASSOCIATE_TAG', 'your tag');
define('AWS_ANOTHER_ASSOCIATE_TAG', '');

define('PRODUCT_NUMBER', 20);

  require('./lib/AmazonECS.class.php');


$category                   = $_REQUEST['category'];
$search                     = $_REQUEST['search'];
$page                       = (isset($_REQUEST['page']) && $_REQUEST['page'] != 0)?$_REQUEST['page']:1;

try
{
    $amazonEcs              = new AmazonECS(AWS_API_KEY, AWS_API_SECRET_KEY, 'com', AWS_ASSOCIATE_TAG);

    $amazonEcs->associateTag(AWS_ASSOCIATE_TAG);
    $amazonEcs->returnType(AmazonECS::RETURN_TYPE_ARRAY);

    $response               = $amazonEcs->responseGroup('Large')->page(1)->category($category)->search($search);
    $page_count             = ceil(PRODUCT_NUMBER/10);
    $page_offset            = ($page-1)*$page_count+1;
    if($response['Items']['TotalPages'] <= $page_count){
         $page_count        = $response['Items']['TotalPages'];
    }
    $array_result           = array();
    for($i=$page_offset; $i<($page_count+$page_offset); $i++){
        $response_nxt       = $amazonEcs->responseGroup('Large')->page($i)->category($category)->search($search);
        $result_temp        = array_merge($array_result, $response_nxt['Items']["Item"]);
        $array_result       = $result_temp;
    }
    echo "<pre>";
    print_r($array_result);

}
catch(Exception $e)
{
  echo $e->getMessage();
}
?>
