Amazon's price: Is that right?

Yes I also noticed that. I had purchased this camera last month and returned mine for an exchange due to possibly being defective (after an email exchange with Canon support). Unfortunately they then emailed me that they no longer had it in stock and didn't know when they were going to get more. They could only offer me a refund. They finally showed it back in stock but then I was amazed at the price! I even emailed them to find out why but just got a non answer (to be expected I guess) about how their suppliers set the prices. As you say, this price is higher than Canons, so it makes you wonder what they are playing at. I guess they don't want anyone to buy it from them...!

Looks absolutely the same to me. Probably just the store price vs amazon. Its too pricey

i've found prices jump around on amazon based on how many times i browse items. maybe it's some clever data-tracking way to monitor my browsing and then coerce me to purchase a particular item because of fear the price is going to continue to increase, but also maybe it's just difference in suppliers as amazon draws from different suppliers for many products. are you sure the supplier is the same at $87 as the supplier was for your first purchase?

I saw it briefly for $299 about a week ago, not sure if it was Amazon or B&H; or where, but it was either Black friday or cyber Monday 1 day special; I paid about $369 last year just before Christmas on a 1 day special at Amazon.

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

I have actually spoke with an Amazon rep and for items sold by Amazon it's based on supply and demand. Prices change regularly (multiple times per day) based on sales vs. on-hand inventory. As an item sells, it's price goes up. The longer it goes without a sale, the price will come down. It's all managed automatically within their system.

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?

Yes. Sometimes amazon has better pricing and other times not so much. When I purchased mine, Walmart's price was higher.

Guys, if it's a loss-leader...do you really want to fight the crowds for the 4 units they'll have on the shelf? And Amazon will match it -- right after chickens grow lips, pigs fly, hell freezes over...well, you get the point. ;) No reason for Amazon to drop the price when it's holding its value at almost $400. Since the Transformer 2 is listed at $499 (32GB) and $599 (64GB) I also don't see a dent in the T1 price anytime soon. Even the Slider in the upper $400s hasn't hurt the T1. Maybe after BF...EDIT: Sorry, let me be clear...I'm definitely ROOTING for a BF sale or a price drop. I just don't see it happening for a while. -Matt Guys, if it's a loss-leader...do you really want to fight the crowds for the 4 units they'll have on the shelf?

Haha, happens to me too often. Now, I use camelcamelcamel (dot) com, they are basically a website that tracks prices. You can copy the url or address of the product page and copy and paste into this website and it tracks the amazon price jumps for up to a year or so, tells you when the best time to buy is and how low the item can actually go. Cheers!

If it's not accurate and you buy it for that price, you get it for the price. It is Amazon's responsibility to have correct labels and their mistake, they pay the price.

Interesting...I was in BB this past weekend and they indicated that they cannot match internet pricing, even though it is Amazon. I got away with that a few years ago at Circuit City and they matched the Amazon price. The great thing about Amazon is that there is no tax and no shipping so any retailer that would match the proce must factor in the local tax to truly come apples to apples.

I think it depends on who amazon sellers are, because I didn't pay 40.55 at the time. It was cheaper from amazon when I bought it.

My price is $64.49 Target has this item for $49.99 The nice thing about a marketplace like Amazon, is that as a consumer you can choose to purchase from wherever you desire. Happy shopping.

Our price on Amazon is not the $73.28 that you are seeing. That price is being offered by another seller.

The price is not amazons. (you can see the store name above the add it to cart button).Amazon allows private sellers to list on there, whether it is a store or just someone selling it from home. Amazons fees for listing a product are so high, that's why i think they listed it for so much. I would check on ebay, they are selling for $49.99 on there right now.
