Holy crap! 5 Bucks Off?!?! How can Amazon offer such low low prices?!?!?

Amazon will charge tax in most places where they have affilliates or resellers, such as New York State.

Hey, if you purchase in bulk, this is an awesome deal! Or maybe Amazon just wants you to know that they care, and that no savings is too small to pass on to the customer.

Amazon, Amazon has incredibly low prices, On other sites these can be as much as $100

I got mine on Black Friday. I saw the price and my eyes almost popped out of my head. I couldn't order it fast enough! Keep an eye out, you never know when the price might drop again. Even at this price it's still cheaper than any other reseller I've seen or even the Apple Store is. I live in Texas and I have no sales tax when purchasing from Amazon which is a added plus!

Seriously... Amazon needs to drop the price! I'll buy a second one if they give a 50% discount (cuz that's the price I got my first unit - $215 last year).

It's posted $39 off the retail. It was showing something like $3 off, but I think that was an error. Sure looks tempting to me.....

I purchased this for $5.59 in the past. Must be an error or typo, as there are sellers with it for less than $7 here on Amazon... which is STILL steep.

In the e-mail the prices were $229.99 and $299.99 ... perhaps you thought they were the same? I tried adding the $299.99 version to my shopping cart, and it came up $299.99. Might have been a temporary glitch, or else they fixed it after seeing your post. Looks like a handy gadget to have!

At B&H;: When you add it to your cart it's 299.99. I just checked - it's still valid, so not a weekend thing.I'm still waiting to see whether Amazon will sell it for a little less.

I didn't realize TV's trade like stocks these days??? I had it in my cart for $1055.00 on 8/24 in the AM and an hour later it went to $1,100+, now its $1,222? Funny how I have never seen anything go down in price after putting in my cart. I've seen things go down a bit when in saved items but never when you're ready to check out. I'm a huge Amazon fan but someone is playing games here.

The price is not amazons. (you can see the store name above the add it to cart button).Amazon allows private sellers to list on there, whether it is a store or just someone selling it from home. Amazons fees for listing a product are so high, that's why i think they listed it for so much. I would check on ebay, they are selling for $49.99 on there right now.

Amazon IS way over-priced, on just about everything. You can buy pretty much anything cheaper in a regular store!

Thank you for noticing! I thought I was the only one who questioned this. I would never have known if I hadn't tried to order one for my mom's birthday because she liked mine so much. I nearly dropped my teeth when it was listed at $119.00. I checked the next day and it was $249.00! In addition, there was a new seller. It appears as if the second seller bought out the first one. Other sites seemed to have their stock dried up as well. When I bought mine Amazon sold it and I used my prime membership to save on shipping. Seems like someone figured out a dirty little way to scam us. I wonder how many other low profile products are going the same way. I called customer service. I did not get a satisfactory response, so I e-mailed them just now. I hope they take notice.

Agreed. It is something that happens now and again on Amazon. We have no control when this sort of pricing strategy happens. Good luck, The Afternoon

Yeah! I realized that they went up too. I thought it was just me. I know that Amazon practices in targeted consumer marketing, where they raise prices for things you normally buy while someone else would look at the same product and it would be half the price. So I don't know if Amazon raised it to $65 now because of my preferences or if its the same for everyone else. Pretty shady tactics if you ask me.

I was wondering the same thing!!! I researched this model and was going to purchase it from Amazon, but heck no at this price!! It is on th Food Saver website for $200.96. There has to be a mistake, or someone is trying to rip people off!

Wow, glad you mentioned this, I'm thinking of buying this. It's now $85. Amazon's pricing for many items does fluctuate, and sometimes quite a bit. It will likely decrease again, not sure when though. You just have to check for it as often as you can until you catch it.

Whatever stock Buy.com had is gone now. The Amazon "Not yet available/Pre-order" message is back up at the MSRP. Can't believe I caught this a a 33% discount. Hope I'm not getting scammed and these were early release units to generate some interest and reviews??!
