I've noticed big price fluctuations with a lot of products on Amazon... It works out for me, though, because the prices dip drastically at other times... gotta love getting an item retailed at $120 for $31.50, don't you think?

That happened to me also, except the price doubled...from $59 to $108! Sounds like "bait and switch" to me. Good reason to go back to the old system.

Hey Guys, I feel the same way. I've been watching the price (LN52A650) since April when it debuted and have noticed the price flucuations starting just a few months ago. I don't get it. You mention the popularity of the new Samsung line. I think it has really gained momentum the last month or two. A lot of the retailers, (e.g. Sears, BB, Circuit City, etc.) have been pushing the whole Samsung line in their advertisments. I'm just hoping the price resumes its price decline come early fall before the start of the X-mas shopping season. Just acquired my upgraded NAD A/V receiver and TV console for the Samsung, just need the TV now. Hey Guys, I feel the same way.

Prices fluctuate. If you shop on Amazon long enough, you'll find that prices for certain item categories (like physical books) are more stable than others (like personal electronics). It almost certainly wasn't a straight shoot from $17 to $28. The price probably rose and dropped, rose and dropped, before eventually reaching $28.00. And it's possible that the $17 price listing was from another vendor than the $28 price listing. $17 sounds awful low for this product. I'm guessing the $17 price was from a third party--not shipped and sold directly by Amazon. Marketplace sellers will sometimes lower the item price to draw customers in, only to raise the shipping and handling to more than compensate for the subtotal deduction. Keep an eye on the price--check it every day. In my experience, if the price reached $17 once, it probably will again. But it might take a few more months to get there.

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 have no idea why the huge price increase, but I SURE AM HAPPY I bought mine in April, 2011, for $229.99. And, I am thrilled with its performance. Chuck

The price seems to fluctuate - I ordered it on 10/07/13 for $66.24 and received it a few days later. But about a day after I ordered it, it went to $129.99. Maybe just keep checking back - ? It's a very high quality item but I don't think I would buy it for $129.99.

I bought the tv for that price. I got it for $1631 on July 30th, I don't know how much that helps you. I checked the next day and the price had raised to above 1700 so I assume I got very lucky.

I was about to order, but then saw the price increase. I've felt like I was watching commodity trading on the pricing the last couple of weeks. Just a guess on my part, but perhaps they are starting to receive units with the new 2009 maps, and that is the reason for the uptick in price? Again, merely an uneducated guess on my part. I'm looking at pcrush(d0tc0m) to order at $235 now.

Jeff, Prices are always fluctuating on Amazon. It depends on popularity of the listing, rank, etc. Please let us know if you have any further questions. Thanks.

You're right, the price fluctuates frequently and randomly. I snagged it about 4-6 weeks ago for $550 free shipping (although not 2-day) and of course, no tax. But there seems to no reason or pattern to their price of the unit. I recommend patience to save a couple hundred dollars -- if you can wait it out.

I bought three for around $16 each on Amazon. I think they fluctuate the price because some folks add them to their Save For Later list in their shopping carts and wait for the prices to drop. Vendors change the price all the time so the notifications pop up in the cart indicating the price change. I agree with the others, challenge the price with Amazon. At worst, they'll probably have you send the one you have back as a return and let you buy again at the listed price (and hope it stays low!).

Well I purchased my right when it come out for $300 and after used I sold it for the same $300. I sold it because this item used a great amount of bandwidth and when I lived at this moment (Brazil) the internet is control it. What I don't understand why are some people selling this now for $666.66, insane!

The price is going up because Samsung is replacing this model with the ln52 850/860 series. Amazon automatically increases prices on items that fall below certain quantities (it is called supply and demand).See:http://gizmodo.com/5028143/samsung-8-series-850-and-860-slim-lcds-19-inches-thick-with-ethernet-and-a-touch-of-color
