it's because amazon is awesome, not sure if you've realized. But its an old stereo four years or so. items decrease in value after a while, smaller retailers have less product and thus they need to sell if for more in order to make a profit. Also amazon buys directly from companies and companies sell directly through amazon so they are usually trying to more product especially when its an older product like this. retailers might have to buy through a 2nd or 3rd supplier and thus again they need to sell at a higher price to make the same profit. There is also shipping prices where online you pay for from the manufacture or amazon's warehouse.

I have to agree with Littlm16 answer. But also want to add my two cents into this one. YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS BOOMBOX. Cuz if you pass this up. You will never have another chance to get something this good (This coming from a old-school boombox lover). Every company now is making small little portable bluetooth speaker system and calling them BoomBoxes, which I find very annoying, cuz they really don't 'Boom' at all. Oh! there is one speaker that is kinda close to this one, the Dre BeatBox, i got this for my Dad. The TDK vs the BeatBox, the TDK wins...hands down. :-)

Thanks you :) that's all I needed to know. It's almost $600 on Amazon and $450 on Walmart, so I'm definitely going to buy it from there!

That's just the way Amazon works sometimes. Not everything makes sense. They may be very overstocked on the cheaper one.

Its strange...I bought this computer at Best Buy - 3 weeks ago (4/14) for $599...its now $749 there and at Amazon.com, the price has always been this high. Thought Amazon would be the less expensive route - guess I was wrong. The computer is great for my needs, though.

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.

Thanks so much for your inquiry. This item is sold out everywhere. That is why the price is higher than usual.

I am no an expert, but I do know at times amazon will price match other competitors. As of September 2nd, Bestbuy has this item at this sale price. Hope this helps.

Looks like its where you want to be, I see $114 right now at Amazon but I have also seen cheaper last week elsewhere, I guess price is subject to fluctuate.

if you look more on amazon.com you will find it cheaper. That is just one price among many listed for this item. Please look further on the pages and you will find it cheaper. The wholesale price is still the same and there was no increase and as a result the retail prices you see vary from one seller to another. Thank you

I agree!! It's much cheaper on intexcorp.com, the only problem is... so far it hasn't been in STOCK~

Look around you can find it for a much lower price. $169.99 is ridiculous.................

Not sure what you are talking about, I bought mine through and noticed the business price was more than the retail version, not sure why. I did not buy it for a business , I cantell you it's a good item! Hope this helped a little

If it's cheaper somewhere else, buy it there. I think Amazon just chooses the price that will maximize the money income.

There's no explaining why different sites have different prices for the same items. I certainly don't know! LOL Go for the cheaper one. That's what I'd do. :-)
