Dear Amazon Customer, Thank you for your e-mail. Entertainment Earth sells this item for $51.99 which is the price suggested by the manufacturer Bandai. We cannot comment on the shipping part of your potential order, as we do not know where you are located. Amazon is supposed to use the same shipping fees we post on our own direct sales website, however they do have the option to override our pricing and charge their own fees. We hope that this information helps you out. Please feel free to contact us at any time with any issues as they arise. Thank you for your interest in Entertainment Earth.

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.

Thanks for the interest in doing business with us! Buying from the manufacturer is more expensive than us..correct. Manufacturers put a retail price out there as service to it's shoppers. Selling retail can be expensive for them because they have much higher overhead. We are here to service you and give you the most competitive prices! Hope to help you out on this great item! Todd

also, your observation is mistaken - This is not 2x the price of Apple's product, it is rather apple's product that is 2x the cost of this.

Way too much money, paid $49 for mine! No idea why this one is priced so ridiculously high.

Well honestly, the item itself costs a little over a dollar... shipping is expensive because it's shipping from Asia. If you want to buy in bulk and maybe in exchange pay less for shipping, you should contact the seller and work out a deal personally. That's what I usually do!

Simple, the camera is new and the demand exceeds supply. However, the #1 reason is that somebody will pay $535 to get it.

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

Look around you can find it for a much lower price. $169.99 is ridiculous.................

I don't know it is over priced or not. I checked price in retail, it is much higher. Furthermore, it is free shipping.

Because Amazon doesn't have a fixed price system. Just get whatever you find cheaper.

I do not know why another seller has it priced so high. Please check my listing instead.

it doesn't normally cost anywhere close. It's $149.99 direct from buttkicker or $129 at other outlets. Those prices are for the version 2 which fixed an issue with the power amp overheating on the version 1 (this one makes no reference to version so one must assume he is selling the first version). Some goofballs price items this way so they can make people feel that they are getting a deal by posting the amazon link and then asking $300 or some funky number.

Good question, every where else I have seen it for sale local it is less than $35.

Hi there, my best guess is their costs to produce it have risen. And the price of competition (equal quality food)are higher.

I came here from Uncrate.com who is reporting it only costs $650 with WIRED.com saying it's $600, but it's still selling here for $900. Either price point is absurd in my opinion, and I'm just as amazed as you are people are buying it at such a high cost.

the only reoccurring costs I know of are the subscriptions like PAYROLL. We also only buy the new version every 3 years, because after 3 years they stop supporting them. $499.90 yearly would be to buy the new version of the software... which you don't have to do.
