Why has the price gone up from $31 in November, 2013 to $66 now in March, 2014?

It could be the company that ships the product. Or, it could be the burdensome regulations proposed by the USDA that is putting small and medium size organic and sustainable family farms out of business, in order to protect the food supply from salmonella. But, it is not the organic farmers who are the problem. The FDA is using a one size fits all policy, that will make matters worse, not better and is caused by the current confinement of millions of birds. Read more at:

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.

Hello, Increases in price are due to an increase from the manufacturer. Do you have the order number from the last time you ordered this product from us, so I can see what the cost was then. Thanks, Mark at Peters Select

I can only assume that it is due to supply and demand. The new ones are $135+

In 2012, this exact item and qty was being sold on Amazon for $21.99. In 2013, I paid $19.59. In 2014 it has skyrocketed in price. Still a good deal at $46? Possibly, but something has changed either with the supplier or the demand for the product. Kills me to pay $46 for something when it was available for 1/2 the price previously.

Yes, it retailed for over $2100 a month ago. The price dropped because the manufacturer discontinued this model.

The price has gone back up significantly. Just before xmas it was about $1899, and as soon as the shipping deadline passed for xmas it dropped to $1595 and stayed that way most of January. Now I see it selling for $1,999.99 When the price was $1595 the TV was being sold by Amazon, now it appears that the TV is being sold by Cruthfield which is why there is a drastic increase in price. If you really want this TV, I would wait until Amazon starts selling it again.

Whoops! I missed it. The price is back up to $1137.99. Which is still cheaper than buying it direct. But you would think prices would DROP nearer to Christmas, not go up. Bummer.

I'm assuming it went up in price because this model has been discontinued, so they are rarer than they were a year or two ago.

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.

If you're referring to the higher price of the 2014 edition vs the 2013 edition, the difference lies in the cost of the new components. The Extruder and Bed are made of aluminum now, instead of Plywood. The material is more expensive, but better quality, thus the price increase.

I bought it last month and it is April 2014!!!!! Don't buy it until you see the price somewhere higher than $13 as that's the price for new batch products.

Now it's back up to $3149. I don't like the fluctuation in prices. It makes me think that if I buy it, I might over pay for the TV.

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.
