I found Baby Alive at Target today (last one!) -- on sale @ 34.95...they're giving rain checks to those who don't find it on the shelf this week!!

The sellers should be ashamed of asking so much for a toy for a child that costs $49.99 at Wal-Mart. Shame on you for possibly depriving a child of a toy that they want for Christmas!!!!!!

This pricing scheme mostly has to do with a camera special. The price always skyrockets to an exorbitant amount when you are offered a good discount on select lenses when you buy a certain camera(s). After the special is over, the prices go back to normal.$399 was just too ridiculous. The person or program that adjust these prices is whack if they/it thinks someone will pay 25% more than the MSRP. (I wonder how many people actually did... ::facepalm::)

Thanks Bobster- I was also wondering where the link to the rebate had disappeared to. Why is the price of this item so labile? Yesterday, when I ordered it, it was $299 and today it's $364!

Thanks G. Mercado, I did notice that it wasn't actually Amazon itself selling at the higher price. I was just referring to the extra $200.00 profit that Toyzz was trying to make. I seriously thought it was a misprint as I would hope people are not that desperate for TC. I know I am not!

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).

I'll add another in the chorus of frustration here. . .I even had the stupid thing in my shopping cart from a couple of days ago because I was doing research on some other components I wanted to order at the same time. I got a "nice" message when I logged in today of the (multiple) price increases. Come on, Amazon, that's like walking up to someone in the store and putting a new sticker on something in their cart!!! On the bright side, however, this TV is $2,999 at Best Buy. . .and I'd have to pay 10% tax to boot!

I paid $2 plus $2 shipping. It is currently shown as $4. My guess is the price changes with popularity. I would keep watching and buy when it drops!

I agree! It is absolutely crazy that on Saturday night when I placed it in my cart it had dropped to $41.99 (unable to finalize purchase because I was waiting for an email reply from TT support regarding the functions of Deluxe version). The next day it was at $49.99. Now it is listed at $53.99! For goodness sake, give me your best offer - then leave it alone while I resolve all of the other issues with TT and make a decision.

Hi. This is Gloria from Naturepedic. We didn't change our prices. But are you aware that there are different vendors on Amazon that sell the same products? It is possible that one vendor will charge more or less than another. One vendor might sell through the Baby department, another might sell through Health and Personal Care, another through Furniture - that sort of thing. Also, I don't want to insult you, but some of the product names are very similar. We have four different lightweight mattress models - all of which are different prices. Is it possible you were looking at a different model yesterday? I hope this helps!

I was wondering why myself as well. I've seen them as low as $16. Yeah the price fluxuation is rediculous. I'm sure they have their reasons, but it is irritating.

The last time they restocked this I payed about $35 (free shipping from Amazon). This doll is not a limited or special edition and from what I can tell, the manufacturer hasn't stopped producing this item. So the price hike on this particular doll is ridiculous!

There is some independent seller (for some reason?) selling for that price, but through ReSqueeze and Amazon they are $14.99 :)

Yes, their price is $349 - but they show us saving $50 from the "list price" of $399. The list price is in fact $349 - we are therefore saving nothing. Which I am fine with since it is new, but feel the claim of savings is deceptive.

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.
