Actually, this is not sold by Amazon.com. If you read carefully you should notice this: "Availability: In Stock. Ships from and sold by ToyWiz." Remember that when you shop at Amazon, you could being shopping in another store. Price differences is the reason why I never shop from another Amazon store rather than Amazon.com Several weeks ago, Amazon had it in stock and sold it by $39.99.

Amazon is not getting away with it, it's one of their partner sellers. Do you know and can you tell the difference? It's not difficult. How can people continue to not understand what they are looking at when you look at a product page and it says "Ships from and sold by C4DEALZ?" Is that Amazon? No, it's not, it's C4DEALZ. When you buy here you will notice that some will say "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com", others will say "Ships from and sold by *some 3rd party seller*" and others will say "Sold by *some 3rd party seller* and Fulfilled by Amazon." The case with this at the moment is that Amazon apparently has no stock and our thoughtful friends at C4DEALZ see the opportunity to jack up the price by $100 or so and make money off the uninformed, especially in this case because even at that price it's less than buying 3 separate upgrades. Get informed. First clue, outrageous prices gouging the customer (for which Amazon actually should remove the seller as a partner) and you won't see it being available for Free SuperSaver shipping since only Amazon sold or fulfilled items are. In my case I have a gift certificate I'd like to use toward the purchase so I'm rather irritated they don't have stock but I'm not stupid enough to pay C4DEALZ gouging prices, or anyone's for that matter. Now I see that "The Toy Giant" has joined the parade of gouging sellers. They should all go on lists of sellers that we will never ever purchase from. Jeff Bezos shouldn't be allowing it, it reflects directly on Amazon.

I agree that this TV is excessively priced, especially since this is an old model as pointed out by Shaq. I don't understand Amazon's strategy. If they are sitting on a bunch of old TVs in their inventory, why don't they price them with a true sales price ?? Like in the week before the Super Bowl for example ?? Just a suggestion... I know I would consider buying it then !!

Yeah..no way on God'sGreenEarth can this toy cost $250.00 bucks!!!!!! Amazon needs to do some fixing...on this & I have noticed it on other items as well.....or serious price gousing laws are going to hit them...that is if anyone was stupid enough to actually purchase!!!!!

Because Amazon doesn't have a fixed price system. Just get whatever you find cheaper.

The people reselling at 89$ do it all the time on here, I was looking at some toys for my niece and they were way more than the Amazon price. Buyers beware!

Theresa: You might have placed your order from a 3rd-party Marketplace Seller, not AmazonCom LLC. Sellers set their own prices. Some pricing is based on the PT Barnum Principle vs Caveat Emptor. Cheers!

Amazon keeps tweeking the price of this 550 and the other models constantly. Even daily!!!!! Mostly by just a few bucks???I recently bought my daughter a 550 for $879. I wanted one also so I waiting, hoping the price would drop a little. Nope......now the same set is over $900.So I found the same set at US Appliance for $849. Free shipping Sorry Amazon

Don't be stupid people, Amazon third party people sell it overpriced, there are other places that sell it for 69.99 or less, I can't say because then the resellers will buy it, but LOOK CAREFULLY.

It appears to me that the seller (not Amazon) jacked up the price for those to over 8.00 each. Nice of them to take advantage of the season. If you can't find them on Amazon.com for 2.99each I would purchase from lego directly. Unfortunately you still have to pay shipping so that option is depending on how many you want to buy and if the seller on Amazon is doing free shipping. Not worth getting it from anyone else unless Amazon has it for 3.00 and with prime shipping. Hope this helps some. I purchased a lot of lego and you have to be careful of who you buy from on Amazon as they can grossly overcharge you.

I am wondering this as well, as Amazon is said to be the supplier on my pre-order, but now they are nowhere to be found for someone pre-ordering. Mine is at 69.99 as well.

This is a problem because how sellers list things. This particular one, is for one figure despite what the picture shows. Unless Amazon gets many complaints, they wont change the picture.

I totally agree with you Ibrahim... I thought about doing the same exact thing, however, just TRY to order it at bestbuy.com and you will see that the total is a lot higher. Ugh, I don't want to pay extra for tax and shipping! This is ridiculous!

I love Amazon.com. I have shopped here since day one. It makes me sad to see Amazon go toward the ebay direction. My "cart items" had increased overnight, too. Amazon.com has gotten too big and too unpredictable for my comfort. Ps...I don't know who is dumb enough to go buy this toy for $200 bucks...but hasn't this happen to every popular toy on the market around Christmas time...(ex..cabbage patch kids in the 80's sold for hundreds of dollars.)

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.
