I have just brought this doll at my local Sams club Houston, TX for $49.99 and it has bonus stuff with it. Hope this is helpful.

it is 99.90. I think you may be looking at different prices from different sellers. Thanks

Amazon is not asking $900 for this product. One seller is asking that price, and my guess is that this is a product that's been listed for awhile by someone with the kind of algorithm that once created a book about flies that was being sold for $23,698,655.93. I can tell you what I paid for this very same machine (like new, minus accessories): $7 at a local non-profit store. So, there you go: the price is somewhere between $7 and $900. ;)For a real answer: since it's not a "new" model, I assume, it's probably worth what someone is willing to pay for it on eBay.

It's an old marketing trick -- it sets a floor price in your mind. Your are stuck evaluating the $100 difference and the $399 (original) price doesn't seem quite as bad. So, you buy the baseline product and think you saved $100.

Matt, the price creep is really annoying! I was about to buy this thing last week for $2199, but wanted to wait till I got home because I had $75 worth of Amazon credits that I wanted to apply. By the time I got home, the price has risen by $85!!! So unfuriating! Then it dropped another $15. I felt like I was watching the stock market! Feeling like a sucker, I finally bit the bullet yesterday and purchased the TV for $2269. I'm glad I didn't wait until today because the price increased another $50! I don't know why they do this, but it makes me very uncomfortable as a customer. Will the price drop again by tonight? I feel like I'm a rat in a market-testing experiment. I wonder whether all of Amazon's customers see the same price or do some customers get higher prices depending on how often they express interest in a product by re-visiting the same page? I remember a few years ago Amazon gave slightly different pricing info to people who had an item saved to their wish lists.

I heard it should be around $20 also...I would like to know why it is so expensive..

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!

That price looks like the going rate for the full version. I own a lot of toontrack products and the list at their site is always too high. Even the sales on their site are higher than other distributors' base price.

I'm glad someone else noticed this too! It was $8.80 when I bought it in July 2013. Now it is $16.48. I'm going to buy it somewhere else.

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! Hi. This is Gloria from Naturepedic. We didn't change our prices.

I've seen the price at 19.99 here too. I think Amazon was selling it for the MSRP, but other sellers are trying to take advantage of the current high demand. If I buy it here, I'm going to wait until the price goes back down again.

On dec 8th, I ordered (3) EyeClops Bionic Eye Multiz., one for each grandbaby, for $21.99 ea.+ free shipping. Heck of a deal***right? You bet! Except, I ordered the wrong ones. The ones I wanted were the portables. The ones with a battery pack. So I'm looking today and thinking "should I return and re-order the EyeClops BioniCam?" And guess what I found; the EyeClops BioniCam was $79.99 but today they are $19.99== less than what I paid for the multizoom. So I ordered (3). Now the kids can go inside "plug-in-to-tv" multizoom or outside with EyeClops BioniCam. portable. AND THE PRICE---WOW!!!These kids sure have a neat (and frugal) Gramma.

I was wondering the same thing!!! I researched this model and was going to purchase it from Amazon, but heck no at this price!! It is on th Food Saver website for $200.96. There has to be a mistake, or someone is trying to rip people off!

I grabbed it for that price. Had it in the cart, looked back a the specs and the price went up! But as it was in the cart, I got it for $649. Merry Christmas Mom!

Go price match at Babies R Us!! As long as the item is sold by Amazon, they will match it. We just did that this evening after I saw this price. If you buy it off your baby registry, you'll also be getting 10% back.
