Amazon usually has equal or lower price than Walmart. However, their price on this item is $30, Amazon is $53.....now whom should I buy from?

I just ordered one online from Target for 29.99 and used my Red Card and got free shipping and an extra 5% off which more than covered the sales tax.

It's really up to your decision on where to purchase the IlluMask-LED Anti-Aging Light.

I noticed that as well. I suggest the lower price as products are identical.

I've noticed that the price on AMAZON seems to vary mostly based on inventory. When you see "only X left in stock" on an item, the price is usually a bit higher. You'll also see a higher price when the source is outside AMAZON, rather then buying directly from AMAZON. Now as far as the $219 price ($269 with the $50 rebate) over Christmas 2011, that was actually an AMAZON "Gold Box" price for only that short time. I only know because I know several close friends who bought units during those exact few days. They saw the "Gold Box" price, and jumped on it. So I really don't think it's "gouging", just inventory based pricing.

Yep...supply & demand. I almost bought it for $199 last week...guess I should have. It's not just Amazon, all the other venders are either out of stock, or have jacked the price way up. That's OK...I'll just wait for the Christmas shopping craze to pass...then I should be able to pick one up at a fair price.

It's not Amazon. All the prices are from Third party retailers that Amazon allows to operate through their site. Unless the product says sold and fufilled by Amazon, then it's not officially them. Amazon has sold out of this figure. Pretty much every site and store has, that's why third party sellers have it so high. Scalping at it's finest.

I saw it, too. But this morning, the price was back to >300. And Amazon price trackers (like Ookong.com) don't register the lower price. But i swear that I saw it.

I called Amazon and they would not match the price. The Best Buy deal was considered a "Black Friday deal" which Amazon does not match.

We got ours from walmart for only 26.99. I would try going there instead of paying the outlandish prices listed here.

Interestingly enough, when you actually click "Buy Now" on the Pioneer site, the price changes to $299 in your cart, but also charges you sales tax, so the only diff from Amazon at that point is the tax (plus the fact that they actually seem to be shipping!)

Amazon doesn't price match. Put it in your cart and check it daily. the price will go down to $55 or so.

Amazon has the best price I have found compared to Wal-Mart. My local grocery store quit carrying this product in favor of their store product. I also have Amazon Prime so the product arrives in two days!

Walmart says it's sold out...haven't found one yet, still looking...Found some on eBay, wow, people are going crazy over this, the prices are running from a low of $66 with bidding still open, clear up to $355.00 with 30 bids on it!

Yes, I would strongly recommend buying from Amazon. The reasons... service and price. Amazon is almost always the lowest price, you get good product details and reviews, and they also realize the value of providing good customer service. I have had very few problems with my purchases from Amazon, but when I have experienced a product problem, they have consistently impressed me with their customer service. Returns are easy and their policies are fair. Buy with confidence!

I wondered the same thing, especially since the vendors' descriptions didn't always jive. So I ended up ordering two: the cheapest one listed on Amazon and one from Walmart site-to-store. They were identical. That's a pretty small test sample, but I'm pretty confident they are all the same.

The prices from the sellers (remember its like buying things from Ebay without the auctioning, so same risks apply) on Amazon are way over actuals, your much better off going to other sellers (BestBuy, Staples, Microsoft), there you'll know what your getting and at a fair price

An Amazon, there could be multiple vendors of the same product and they might be charging different shipping rates. Also, your location may affect the rates as well. You may want to see which vendors provide the lowest price on the product + shipping, but make sure that you also factor in service when you choose which to buy from.

My price is $64.49 Target has this item for $49.99 The nice thing about a marketplace like Amazon, is that as a consumer you can choose to purchase from wherever you desire. Happy shopping.

I have no idea why it's priced so high. I bought mine at Walmart at a much lower price. This is actually now an older version, too.
