Hi Indoor-Skier! From "The Nordic Track Guy" website: "In 1996, based on slumping sales due to competition from Riders, a combination stationary bike and upper-body exerciser that had replaced skier as the latest exercise fad, NordicTrack sought to replace skier sales with a line of new products geared specifically to the aging baby boomer population. This decision ultimately led to the downfall of the company. After the NordicTrack CML Company went bankrupt in late 1998, ICON fitness of Logan, UT became the latest NordicTrack Company. They continue to produce just one model, the Classic Pro skier and have moved all manufacturing of this skier to China." Hi Indoor-Skier!

NordicTrack went bankrupt in the latter 90's and the name is owned by Icon Fitness. The skiers they sell today are far more cheaply made knock-offs and not even close to the original - quality built skiers that were sold during the companies hayday. Yes, you can buy them on the cheap for less, but no where near the Original Better than New Quality that NordicFitnessTrack offers. We specialize in only the original machines and we're also the only place where you still get a Better than New Warranty; 5 Years on the Drive Rollers and 1 Year Bumper to Bumper.

My product is fulfilled by Amazon and I just checked and they are still in stock. It must be another seller. I did see someone selling them for less than the wholesale price, it may have been a mistake and they fixed the error before they last money on the sale.

Hello, thank you for your question. We are not sure when/if this item will be back in stock. As of today February 14, 2014 this item is listed as "Currently Unavailable" which means that it is currently not available for ordering, and it may not be in stock again. I'd suggest checking our website from time to time to see if this item is available. If anyone is selling it, you'll see a "More Buying Choices" box on the product detail page. If it's not available from any sellers, you might see an "Alert me" link; "Alert me" allows you to sign up to be e-mailed when Amazon has stock available for purchase. I hope this helps!

Bubbles, I have searched everywhere to no avail. I did read from a post that it was discontinued by Kellog's, why I have no idea!! I like you only used them. So did so many others. If I find them or any further info I will post. Maybe we ALL should contact Kellogs!

No I'm sorry I don't know why they discontinued it, sometimes companies have new products coming out and just discontinued old products.Thanks

out of production, but still in demand i assume. it seemed one of those rare "stand out" models in an otherwise so-so lineup. so i guess it's priced like a collector's item. mine has since failed, and i'd replace it with same -- IF it were still available at original price.

Just a guess, but I think it's being discontinued. I have searched every store that we purchased it in the past and no one is carrying it!

I agree, this is Ridiculous, Amazon had it for $349 a few days ago, and it may now be out of stock. The dark expresso is still available. I hate it when sellers hike the prices that make no sense.

I totally agree. I don't understand why Amazon has been out of stock for more than 2 weeks for this item. By the way , thanks for telling me the Us Appliance discount thing. I will try in couple of days.

I am wondering if now, as of Sep 2012, if it is no longer available. Everywhere shows out of stock.

It's been discontinued and all the information I've tried to find is murky. I would maybe not trust this seller, but you could try calling them or something. You can still occasionally find it on eBay, but the company says they have no plans to bring it back. I berated them and it did absolutely no good. It was a great product.

I've had it in sitting in my cart for a couple of weeks waiting to order it & it still says:"Not in stock; order now and we'll deliver when available". Does ANYONE have ANY idea when it will be in stock?

I imagine that it was out of stock. If it's not available on Amazon, try going directly to The Laundry Alternative's website, their prices are lower.

At this time I am unable to obtain more of this wonderful product. Due to the nature of Melaleuca's Membership Agreement, the people I was purchasing the product from to make it available for non-members, have had their accounts closed. Once I'm able to obtain more of the product I will list it as soon as possible. Perhaps other sellers might be able to obtain more.
