I just bought lavendar oil from this company on 7/2014 for $11.98, why such a high increase? Oh, no I'm sorry, why such a rip off at Christmas time?

Hello, Thank you for your question. Our 1 Ounce (30 ML) oil has never been sold at $11.98. We do have 10ML oil, which is Sold Out at the moment, with a price of $11.98. Most likely the oil you purchased in July was our 10ML and not our 30 ML. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any other question. Sincerely, My Green Origin Customer Care

Don't buy from these people on Amazon. Please sign up and purchase through Young Living. This is why the rest of us are limited on what we can buy because people purchase large amounts and make a profit. Go to the source.

No kidding. $11.00 in December 2013. More than doubled in April 2014. I'm looking elsewhere as well.

Yes it was and I bought it at a cheaper price. I wanted another one and saw how much it went up, I will not buy at this price. Supply and demand I guess.

You reminded me to look again...it's only gotten worse. While I can get this in Aspen (yes, ASPEN...8,000ft in the mountains, 200mi from Denver, box canyon in winter, one of the highest land and labor cost zones in the country) for $3.80/jar, I now see that Amazon has one source selling it for $14.33/jar, including shipping--almost FOUR TIMES MY LOCAL PRICE? The wholesale price HAS to be under $2. That's over 600% markup. We should start selling this. To be fair, they also sell it for $6.66, which is ony 230% markup and 60% over what I can get it for locally...REALLY?

I was wondering why myself as well. I've seen them as low as $16. Yeah the price fluxuation is rediculous. I'm sure they have their reasons, but it is irritating.

I'm wondering this, too. Every flavor in every size has gone up almost $5 on some! Really disappointed.

Wow, no I paid $6.64 and purchased 2 bottles. Have no idea why the price is so high, maybe email Amazon with an inquiry? Good luck

Yes I want to know this too, please. Been advised never to buy YL oils from Amazon or other source other than YL direct because they've been tampered with in some way or another. This is a great price and I'm tempted anyway! Comments?

Hi there! Much of our pricing has to do with supply and demand. Before Christmas, we need to keep adjusting the prices to our stock levels to avoid getting out of stock during the busiest season of the year. Also, as most business do, we try to lower the prices a lot just after Christmas, to also stay competitive during the post-holiday sales. Since the black set has been our most popular, the pricing is a bit higher to keep it from going out of stock too quickly. Hope that helps! If there's anything else, just let me know. I can be contacted directly via this link:

I've been sitting here much of the day watching toy prices go up and down on this site. It's pretty ridiculous. I had items in my cart disappear, reappear, and increase in price all within four hours. I have a love/hate relationship with Amazon for this reason. During Christmas, you pretty much have to order immediately to ensure the deal. I've seen items go up by $20-$50 within 30 minutes.

I reported it last year (August 2007). At least they have the right product now. Hopefully they'll figure out the price someday. ;-)

Priced increased from vendors. The product is liquid and it coast more to insure and ship

Like I said, I base my pricing on my supplier, I have no idea what they are going to do with the price. Sorry, wish I had a better answer.

Agreed. The price has risen by 50% - I kind of want to know why. Anyway, I won't be buying this one unless the price goes back down :(

It's all about supply and demand, the higher the demand, the higher the price. Also, Ensure just transitioned to their new formula, so the older formula is selling for a higher price, since it's slightly different. You should always shop around before making a purchase.
