What is with Amazon's Toy Prices? "Catch Phrase" is $109??

Elizabeth. Those high prices are not actually "Amazon's" prices. Those are the resellers that sell on Amazon. When you see those high prices like that, it means that Amazon is out of stock and their resellers have them in stock for those prices

Wow, glad you mentioned this, I'm thinking of buying this. It's now $85. Amazon's pricing for many items does fluctuate, and sometimes quite a bit. It will likely decrease again, not sure when though. You just have to check for it as often as you can until you catch it.

Plus there only $87.99 on Amazon.com! Don't know where you are getting $200 from.

At B&H;: When you add it to your cart it's 299.99. I just checked - it's still valid, so not a weekend thing.I'm still waiting to see whether Amazon will sell it for a little less.

I've been sitting here much of the day watching toy prices go up and down on this site. It's pretty ridiculous. I had items in my cart disappear, reappear, and increase in price all within four hours. I have a love/hate relationship with Amazon for this reason. During Christmas, you pretty much have to order immediately to ensure the deal. I've seen items go up by $20-$50 within 30 minutes.

Probably because they purchased it for under $100. If you notice amazon prices fluctuate daily. For example today (01/06/2014) the price is 97.82+ shipping.

Because sellers on Amazon are price-gouging you whenever it's not in stock directly from Amazon ;-)

i just posted a comment on a long list of mad people about this deal and amazon has already removed the thread of everyone's comments. hiding the fact of unhappy customers i guess. its not worth waiting for these as the same thing happened last year with everything. even the ones you vote on, does anyone know anyone who actually gets picked to buy any of them? i buy stuff on amazon all the time and figure the more frequent buyers maybe have a better shot of getting picked. i mean $79 for a Wii is crazy, they could have just sold them at regular price because considering they are sold out everywhere even full price is a deal. i just think these deals don't really exist. i just posted a comment on a long list of mad people about this deal and amazon has already removed the thread of everyone's comments. hiding the fact of unhappy customers i guess. its not worth waiting for these as the same thing happened last year with everything. even the ones you vote on, does anyone know anyone who actually gets picked to buy any of them? i buy stuff on amazon all the time and figure the more frequent buyers maybe have a better shot of getting picked. i mean $79 for a Wii is crazy, they could have just sold them at regular price because considering they are sold out... » Read More i just posted a comment on a long list of mad people about this deal and amazon has already removed the thread of everyone's comments. hiding the fact of unhappy customers i guess. its not worth waiting for these as the same thing happened last year with everything. even the ones you vote on, does anyone know anyone who actually gets picked to buy any of them? i buy stuff on amazon all the time and figure the more frequent buyers maybe have a better shot of getting picked. i mean $79 for a Wii is crazy, they could have just sold them at regular price because considering they are sold out everywhere even full price is a deal. i just think these deals don't really exist. « Show Less

That's Amazon's Price. Click the "11 New From" link. They are cheaper from other retailers.

Because it's sold by a third party and fulfilled by Amazon. People will try to charge to much because it is demand. I suggest waiting because eventually they will get more in stock at the lower price. I would say check other retailers also.

It's posted $39 off the retail. It was showing something like $3 off, but I think that was an error. Sure looks tempting to me.....

I agree, War Eagle! I also hate the fact that the List Price is $499 and Amazon is selling it for $503. That doesn't seem right either!

Melissa, I am not sure why there is such price disparity. Usually that indicates hat the particular Yummy Stuffer (alligator here) might be in low supply. I say, "Buy it at Target!" if you can get it for $20 there and shop at Amazon next time - It is my favorite place for shopping - so easy!! My son LOVES this Alligator Tummy Stuffer, by the way. He's 6. It fits an amazing amount of toys - I was pleasantly surprised. Susan

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.

Yes this is price gouging... personally I think Amazon should not allow items to be listed above a certain percentage of msrp. Not even sure if this will work with a modern OS (apart from Linux).
