Hello Max, In order for us to sell on Brondell products online we have to become Authorized dealers. Brondell has net price that we can give certain discount from. They have set prices. If ebay is selling at a lower price they are not following the rules and regulations that Brondell implies on sellers and they will be disqualified dealers of Brondel. Hope this helps a bit. ~McGrath

Amazon IS way over-priced, on just about everything. You can buy pretty much anything cheaper in a regular store!

The only logic involved is how best to maximize the seller's profit. By charging a penny for the item and eight bucks shipping, sellers avoid paying commission to Amazon. (which presumably charges commission only on the selling price and not the shipping cost) It also makes it less likely the customer will return the item for a refund, since shipping costs are usually not refundable. I quit shopping at eBay when this started becoming common. It's a real shame to see Amazon's sellers adopting such a sleazy practice.

True - it's not Amazon's fault. It's marketplace scammers. As others have said - don't buy from these guys. If you really, really, really just have to have a discontinued Zune, get it on eBay for a reasonable price.

What I can't understand is why Amazon let's these sellers get away with selling these false promises. I'll probably go back to Ebay!!!!!

I know what you mean. They upped the price on me when it was in my cart by nearly $200, so I went with another vendor.Amazon's current $2,499 price is the same as Circuit City, which isn't very competitive. There are several places online that sell it cheaper at the moment with free shipping. Just go to nextag or pricegrabber to find the best deal.

Yes both Square trade warranties on Amazon and Ebay are cheaper than their direct website.

The prices from the sellers (remember its like buying things from Ebay without the auctioning, so same risks apply) on Amazon are way over actuals, your much better off going to other sellers (BestBuy, Staples, Microsoft), there you'll know what your getting and at a fair price

Different sellers? I have noticed other things that are sold on Amazon that are exactly the same just different colors cost different. Might be by demand.

They're eBay feedback rating is pretty good too. I believe it was 98% out of around 20,000 ratings. It really is strange that there is such a drastic difference between their reseller ratings vs. amazon

I'm waiting for the Amazon price to go down again (The price went up 60%), I was wondering if they are a new batch of the item, but still doesn't make sense. I don't like dealing with their marketplace sellers, Amazon stands behind the product they sell.

You bought it on Ebay and your asking the question on Amazon ? Something isn't kosher here ?

I tried to report a lower price on http://www.highrollerusa.com/ and Amazon says it's not a real URL :-) (that's where they make them-).

I live in Los Angeles and this company is just a few miles from me. I called to see if I could buy it and pick it up to avoid the shipping cost and they told me they sell it at their store for ~$80. They could not lower the price. They said Amazon chooses to reduce the cost of the item from the $80 to the $35 so they can charge the rest in shipping and make it look like it is cheaper. They said if I wanted to buy this item in store I would have to pay the full price. I am not sure if this is Amazon or the seller Best Choice Products but either way I feel this is deceptive and makes me not want to even bother.

I just looked at it and the Amazon Prime price is $339. If you click the "New & Used" button you can buy from other sellers at different prices.

I ordered this on 30 June and the damn thing refuses to arrive. I am getting really angry with Amazon. Does anyone have any idea of some other place where I can get a good deal on this.
