Why is this so expensive, I just bought the same thing at Home Depot for $4.98.

The item you purchased from Home Depot was the 'White Cap' 'non-professional' strength type. The Depot did sell the 'Black Cap' 'Professional Strength' version (same as here) at one time, for approximately $7.00, but my local store (Laurel, MD) discontinued selling it. In my opinion, there is a substantial difference in strength between the two versions, and my preference is for the 'Black Cap' professional strength version.

I have used it for years. It seems the same to me. This is the least expensive place I know. Cheaper than buying thru local retailers.

I do not know why. I buy it now in supermarket and it cost less then on amazon.

I had this in my shopping cart this week at $54 and two days later it just jumped again to $70.00 <<< rather crazy? Costco sells this so I will start buying local

It is "insanely expensive" but you can buy this part for about $55 on other web sites. Even Norelco's Web Page has it for about $75 so somebody is gouging here.

Even I am wondering at the same thing? Did they post that just to make this seem much cheaper?

Because the cost of the shipping is in the price. Also the Home Depot bags are 1.5 cubic square feet instead of the 2 cubic square feet sold on Amazon.

You aren't the only one who wants to know why this is so much more expensive now. I broke my upper bowl and was going to get another. Can't find a replacement now for just the upper bowl and the complete siphon is a bit too pricey lately. Still waiting for the price to drop some. :(

I was looking at this too and see that if you click on other suppliers, it shows $8.00. I will have our team look into why it is showing a different price.

I can't figure it out myself. My son has one, exactly as pictured, and it's a nice toy, but $40 nice not $300 nice. There is absolutely no reason this should be so expensive, unless of course it came with Handy Manny live and in the flesh, and he just appears whenever something around the house is broken and fixes it for you with hassle and at no additional cost.

I'm sorry I believe that they are charging that much for one unit on this item. A little overpriced obviously. Our price is for one unit.

yep, Saw it at home depot for $29.00 last week. $20 dollars less than I paid for it.

I'm glad someone else noticed this too! It was $8.80 when I bought it in July 2013. Now it is $16.48. I'm going to buy it somewhere else.

Don't know. Just be aware that it most likely will come very damaged. I was warned by 3 out of 5 reviewers. They were correct. Home Depot has same product. Last time I looked it was cheaper.

HI I just went to home depot site and it is the same exact one for 439.00. I see that amazon has it now for one thousand eight hundred plus dollars which is absolutely ridiculous. I hope no one buys it for this price. At the time I paid 499.00. even that was high due to the fact that water gets in somehow from the back. Hope this helps.

I returned it so I don't know. Went to home depot and picked another one in home depot and a better price.

Try to find it at a Home Depot....it is worth the 9.99 shipping if you can't locate at Home Depot.
