oddly high-priced... I've seen this item on Bissell's site which only recommends two 'where-to-buy' sites - one of which doesn't have it. The other is HSN - but it's out of stock there. The thing that bothers me is that the price there is listed as 89.95 - almost half the price of Amazon, which normally trumps low price on nearly all items. I'm ready to buy this, but I won't pay almost $100 extra for it - sorry. I want to believe Amazon has mistakenly mispriced this item. Any feedback? Thanks! oddly high-priced...

I remember looking at it and thinking the same thing. Actually didn't know about the other sites. There is a similar steam broom selling on infomercials for somewhat less than even that. And truth be told, I'm not sure I would even pay that much for it.I would love a steam mop that does the same thing, but more than $50 and I have to wonder what kind of special plastic they used to make this stuff. Somebody must be buying it or else the price would be lower. And I'm sure Bissel's reputation is better than that infomercial item too, just to be fair.

UPDATE: What's going on here!?! When I first answered the question from Karen L. (on Sunday afternoon) I thought that maybe she meant $29.00 or some other spotlight entirely. Nope, $ 219.00 it is. At around 3:00 a. m. on Monday morning, I went back to the site at Amazon. This time there was no record of me having purchased these spotlights. What I bought, and what Karen L. is asking about, ARE THE EXACT SPOTLIGHTS!!! Why they now cost almost 10 times more, I have no idea. I didn't find ANY spotlights that were this expensive. Can anyone out there explain this?

Amazon is not asking $900 for this product. One seller is asking that price, and my guess is that this is a product that's been listed for awhile by someone with the kind of algorithm that once created a book about flies that was being sold for $23,698,655.93. I can tell you what I paid for this very same machine (like new, minus accessories): $7 at a local non-profit store. So, there you go: the price is somewhere between $7 and $900. ;)For a real answer: since it's not a "new" model, I assume, it's probably worth what someone is willing to pay for it on eBay.

Yeah you are right from last 4 weeks prices at amazon are hovering between 1799 to 1899. Last weekend for couple of days BB decreased the price to 1799 when it was 1899 at amazon. But before i could get hold of the price they increased it back to 1999 (saturday midnight). Let see if it comes back down again by this weekend. I don't see amazon going below1 1799. The similar model LN46A860(Toc Blue) is being offered for 1599. Don't know why, but id prices don't settle may be i will go for this model. tech Specs are same.

Because Amazon allows several different vendors to sell products through their marketplace. The search result reflects the lowest price among those vendors, and that won't always be Amazon. If that's the case, you'll see that low price over on the right hand side of the page. I am usually inclined to spend a few bucks more and get something from Amazon though.

Sometimes there are just different prices website to website. I would just buy it where you can find it cheaper. I am pretty sure when I purchased this (years ago) I didn't spend $40 on a tub.

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.

HI I just went to home depot site and it is the same exact one for 439.00. I see that amazon has it now for one thousand eight hundred plus dollars which is absolutely ridiculous. I hope no one buys it for this price. At the time I paid 499.00. even that was high due to the fact that water gets in somehow from the back. Hope this helps.

I got mine from Amazon last week for 1249, best price ive seen. Last night it was ~1450, now its 1379. I was surprised by how often Amazon changed the prices.

Now this thing is up to $1606? is everyone seeing this same price? Why in the world is the price rising like this in $50 chunks? It's like they are trying to make us buy the LNA46750 ($1630 or so). Makes no sense to me...there are apparently many TV buyers at the ready if Amazon wasn't jerking the price all over the place. If they don't get things straightened out shortly, I'll buy it over at Newegg. They're pretty reputable from what I understand, and the Newegg price of $1529 (free shipping) is looking better by the minute - though product appears to be on backorder or something over there. Patience will be a virtue here I guess. Now this thing is up to $1606? is everyone seeing this same price? Why in the world is the price rising like this in $50 chunks?

I agree that this TV is excessively priced, especially since this is an old model as pointed out by Shaq. I don't understand Amazon's strategy. If they are sitting on a bunch of old TVs in their inventory, why don't they price them with a true sales price ?? Like in the week before the Super Bowl for example ?? Just a suggestion... I know I would consider buying it then !!

Matt, the price creep is really annoying! I was about to buy this thing last week for $2199, but wanted to wait till I got home because I had $75 worth of Amazon credits that I wanted to apply. By the time I got home, the price has risen by $85!!! So unfuriating! Then it dropped another $15. I felt like I was watching the stock market! Feeling like a sucker, I finally bit the bullet yesterday and purchased the TV for $2269. I'm glad I didn't wait until today because the price increased another $50! I don't know why they do this, but it makes me very uncomfortable as a customer. Will the price drop again by tonight? I feel like I'm a rat in a market-testing experiment. I wonder whether all of Amazon's customers see the same price or do some customers get higher prices depending on how often they express interest in a product by re-visiting the same page? I remember a few years ago Amazon gave slightly different pricing info to people who had an item saved to their wish lists.

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.

Same here... Amazon has been out of stock for weeks so the other, third-party vendors prices are crazy. I found it at Walmart for $5.95 for a box of four. So that $1.48ea vs. $1.41ea @ $17/box.

Jeez people...don't you find any product for sale at different prices? How dare Amazon try and make a bit of profit. Maybe if you went to the Waba site and ordered it from there, you would feel better paying more for it. Do your diligent pricing work (which you evidently have already done), like it or leave it on Amazon, and move on! "Why does a car from this dealership cost more than it does from a dealership in a different town?" Some people!

I have older model, I don't know why they jacked up the price to $199. Just out of curiosity and do Amazon a favor, I went to Macy's and Kohl's bought the new one yesterday, at same price $199 (Kohl's gave $40 Kohl's cash for next purchase) and opened the box, it's exactly the same one as the one I have. I am not sure why the price went up, the ones from Macy's and Kohl's UPC code 050946745114 model KPRA. Maybe it's the old one after all lol
