Quando? What is the purpose of manipulating consumer desire in this cruel manner?

At last it is January now...By this time, Leica should let us know when in January it will be available. Or it will be good if Amazon.com team give us that information for users...

I think you're confused about the purpose of Amazon Answers... this isn't a way to communicate with sellers.

You're missing the whole point Rob. The idea is to lull them into a semi-catatonic state, with little or no need to interact with the world. The virtual comatose state also results in very limited movement and therefore lower food bills. Everyone's a winner!

Guess this question has to be put to a vote. Lovely. Heck of a lot of good this "ask people who've purchased the item" does when the two responders can't even agree about something objective! ("Do the eyes close?")

These sellers are just scam artists trying to make a quick buck on what they like to call supply and demand. The reality is that Amazon falsely misleads consumers into thinking that the price they see is a good deal. In this case, they have a fictitious list price of $49.99 to make the sucker think he/she is getting a good deal when in fact, it's been overly inflated almost 200%. If this thing actually cost these sellers more than $10, I would be surprised. To make matters worse, they charge you extra for shipping (it's not even Amazon Prime). Buyer Beware!!!!

Because the vendor hasn't violated Amazons conditions and sale protocol. Just because you dislike something doesn't mean it should be banned. Are you a fascist intolerant individual? FYI, my roll had the POTUS on every square :-)

I'm telling people not to buy these. They are quirky, unstable, and frustrating to try enjoy. Someone GAVE me theres and now I know why. Now I'm trying to give it to someone too.

Contrary to what people are saying about greed, this is almost always due to algorithms that sellers use to automatically set prices. If you're truly interested, you can read about it here: http://www.michaeleisen.org/blog/?p=358It's not particularly "greed", but rather the market attempting to be the most efficient and the seller being a bit lazy about checking to see if the prices make any sense.

you're asking the wrong people, you need to ask the owner of the product, not the people who purchased it . . .

I've been watching these things all day, things I don't even want. Most of the time, sold out in a few minutes. Seems a little misleading, to me. Keeps you on Amazon, maybe the intention?

LOL! My review was removed yet again! Haha! Get it through your heads price gougers! I can copy and paste with the best of them, understand I have no intention of letting it slide. In fact, your attempts to silence me have only strengthened my resolve. Suck it!

It's just marketing. Like how they market those skinny cigs (e.g. Virginia Slims) to woman and menthol cigs to black folks.

Mr. Keh, it shows extraordinarily poor business sense to blame your customers for the poor systemic performance of your product. I cannot imagine how poorly designed your hardware and software must be in order to cause such a catastrophic problem so easily, and I cannot imagine the hubris of telling someone that they must reformat their computer hard drive to recover their GPS and calling this "good news." I have determined now that I want no part of a product that blames it's users first for what is so obviously a systemic weakness of design.

I think all the reviews and the fact they are posted answeres your question without your asking. You can make up your own mind. As with any company that has a reseller base why would Amazon want to antagonize their resellers? I am sure many have ignored your qustion as just not important. I thought you should read an answer from someone with an honest prospective who has never had your thought. Many of the pictures and videos are posted by customers.You seem to be focused on a picture of which you may not be familiar with its source. I rely on the revies more than what things look like.

I am thoroughly disgusted by these vendors that attach themselves to Amazon and artificially inflate prices of popular Christmas toys. I wish Amazon would consider dropping these so-called "retailers" from their website. It is unethical price gouging.

Evil? Come on. Hitler was evil. Child abuse is evil. People making a buck legally is NOT evil. Get a grip. It's just a gadget.Sent from my excellent 32 g HP Touchpad

The company can change the price of the item whenever they want. They probably looked at their competitors, and similiar 14W chargers, and adjusted. That's the world of capitalism, daddy-o.
