Why is Max Factor foundation so expensive now?

Gougers bought up the last of them and are selling for greedy profits plain and simple since Procter n Gamble in the U.S. don't produce it anymore.

From $10 to $99 is really ridiculous I will look for something more reasonable.

At the time Yardley stated they were discontinuing April Violets (and some other classics) to pursue the ever elusive "younger" demographic. (I guess when you turn 40, your money is somehow devalued?) What I don't know is why they brought it back - maybe old money isn't so valueless. The cute part is that it's now described as a "unique, fresh and sensual floral." Doesn't sound like grandma to me. Anyway, yes, it does seem weaker and less lasting, but it's also about $20 to $30 cheaper (the eau de toilette).

Sorry Marcela, I don't know the answer! My experience with Max Factor is disappointing to say the least. I wear Light to fair and find that when applied seem to be slightly more darker and does not go on as smooth as the ones we used to buy at our local wal-mart. also the size is a huge disappointment, they are now quite smaller than it used to be resulting in much less product for your money, and the container is made of a very cheap plastic that makes me wonder if the area where you twist the makeup will snap. Sorry, I hope this helps; I am just not sure about shades!

If you Google this Panasonic item you will find that MFSP is $70 but I could not find it for that price and I refuse to pay the prices that I did find which ranged from $300+ to $500+. It is criminal.

I read somewhere that Feliway is 'stronger' than Comfort Zone. That's why I believe it's more expensive.

The reason the price jumped is that Amazon doesn't have the camera in stock (hardly anyone does -- Panasonic seems to have badly underestimated demand), and the only third-party Amazon sellers who have it are charging these ridiculous gouging prices because they think there are people willing to pay that much to get it NOW as opposed to whenever Panasonic can manufacture enough to satisfy the demand. If I were to put in an order with Amazon today (buying from Amazon at $899), I doubt I'd receive it before January at this point. There's no way I would pay $1500 for a GF1, but the official $899 price seems fair for what it is (with a lens included).

They aren't the same cost. You must be looking at 2 different things...perhaps perfume, cologne or toilette water???

Heh. I'm pretty sure that wasn't an option back when I originally posted this. I think this changed because they've since raised the item price.

In the "GOOD OLD DAYS" when I bought Max Factor Panstik here in the USA, I always bought the Suntan tone. Now, I have been buying the Medium from sellers in Great Britain and Ireland. It seems pretty close to the original tone I used. I certainly wish Max Factor would revive the old-fashioned Panstik colors and size we enjoyed here.

I feel for you. While it doesn't have to do with fitness products, I too experienced the price hike. Was looking for a decent laptop recently, finally found the one that sang my name. Had it in my wish list for a few days to mull it over, when I finally was ready to buy, the price jumped by $150. Ouch. Listed price wasn't a sale or anything either, so that was the real sad part.I guess January has become gouge month or something.

This pricing scheme mostly has to do with a camera special. The price always skyrockets to an exorbitant amount when you are offered a good discount on select lenses when you buy a certain camera(s). After the special is over, the prices go back to normal.$399 was just too ridiculous. The person or program that adjust these prices is whack if they/it thinks someone will pay 25% more than the MSRP. (I wonder how many people actually did... ::facepalm::)

The old model can be jail broken which places this in high demand. Because it's in high demand but short supply (when they're all gone, there won't be anymore), sellers can charge a premium price.

I agree...have been buying it and somehow got lulled into paying much more than when I first started buying this...SAD!!!

Good question... In this case, it depends on which item you select in the dropdown menu, the "prefilter" or one of the other selections. I'm really starting to dislike the sloppy way Amazon lumps items together this way--makes me wonder about how sloppy they are in other matters... The best hint seems to be the price, with the prefilter around twenty dollars and the UV cap and bottle selling in the ninety to one hundred dollar range.

Hi, I just bought for my family in last year. It's much cheaper than in China but still expensive.
