I ordered these containers about 4 days ago, and now they are reduced by $2. Why were they more expensive before & can I get a price adjustment?

Prices fluctuate on Amazon depending on the day of the week (demand) and the particular supplier. Price adjustments are not available. If it's a concern, place an item in your shopping cart and watch the price for awhile. You'll notice then, when the best times to order and times when it's better to wait.

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!

Actually, Amazon does do price adjustments if the price drops within 7 days, just email them. They will only do it once per order (so if it drops $2 on day 3 and they adjust, they will not adjust again if it drops another $2 on day 5) and I'm not sure but it's probably only for items sold by Amazon.

Jared, Looks like they've significantly raised they're price based on demand. I also ordered 100 of these last July (2012) for just over $26. Now it's more than that for just these 10. Not a good deal. Apparently everyone is using these for the self-watering container gardens.

Ah..now it is "down" to $27.99. Sorry. Not good enough. $23.40 is the price I'm looking for - and only if it adjusts back to that will I buy this food again. Even at that price it is very very expensive (although I do believe high quality) even compared to other high quality food. So nice try Amazon -- (or whoever is setting this price) -- but no cigar.

Dear Dan Thank you for asking us. We are sorry for the inconvenience. That&#12288;is because the price in the Japanese market is also changing day by day. So we have no choice without changing the price.... We hope you understand this. Thank you Office Lisa

I think it's because it's packed in water. Our shipping was costly too. What upset us was that when we opened the box we found there tiny holes in the containers and we had to throw away most of it.

I am very sorry that you are upset by the current pricing of this item. unfortunately our supplier has raised cost across our entire product line

Wow. I just checked what you were talking about. That $84.99 must be a bizarre misprint. Just order as many $10.99single units as needed. It's inexpensive and works for simple storage.

Hi! We purchased ours about a month ago and didn't pay that much for them. I'm guessing because it's getting closer to Christmas that s why they are

I don't think they do price adjustments but you maybe could order it at the current price and return the more expensive one? I suggest contacting customer service first.

I noticed this too. Mine changed while it was in my cart. Glad I double checked! Over $8/box is ridiculous!

Unfortunately I have the type of seller account with Amazon that does not allow me to combine shipping charges. They actually set my shipping charges automatically and I am not able to change it. The only thing I can do is refund you the shipping charges but I do not have 8 of these lids in stock right now. Thanks for inquiring.

These used to be $3.99 a lb 20 years ago. My guess is inflation. Not sure about S&H. I wish sellers would read questions and answer them.

You should be able to see some reduction in shipping when enter the quantity. Thanks,

For $20.49 I think you get two containers ~~ when I ordered mine they were about $10.00 each.

i just bought this yesterday, im sorry but i might have been the source of its rapid increase in price. :/

I'm with you. I was waiting for pay day and 2 days before the price went up. I'm hoping it goes down in the next few days/weeks. Amazon does have a 30 day price guarantee where if the price goes down after you've ordered you can contact them and they'll refund you.
