I was in the same boat. There is a new version out with the Kindle App preinstalled that goes for $599.

I feel for you. While it doesn't have to do with fitness products, I too experienced the price hike. Was looking for a decent laptop recently, finally found the one that sang my name. Had it in my wish list for a few days to mull it over, when I finally was ready to buy, the price jumped by $150. Ouch. Listed price wasn't a sale or anything either, so that was the real sad part.I guess January has become gouge month or something.

Yea, I am regretting not buying this at $1505 w/ the bluray deal on wed. the 24th. Thinking wow, maybe amazon will have a better BF price, it actually went up $50. And now, well as you all see, $1,606.92+ and no bluray deal. Lets just say I wont be buying from amazon unless the price drops back down. Or might just go elsewhere....

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.

Yes, the 52w3000 was at $2499 just a few weeks ago. Suddenly the price jumped to $2608, now I am waiting for the price to drop again...

Actually, the price even went down to $235 last week. I bought it here for $285 two weeks ago, requested for a price adjustment and received $50 back to my credit card! The price do fluctuate but Amazon's price adjustment policy is great!

Thanks for the info, Donald.I'm still amazed at how the price fluxuates on these sets. The 52XBR6 currently sells on the Dell site for $3000, whereas other places online have it for less than $2300. That's a huge difference. And you never know what the price is going to be at Amazon. It goes up or down $200 or less every day.I'm happy with the price I paid for the set. If it goes down $200 in the next few days I won't cry a river. I could have paid much more a couple months ago.

Amazon is good about reducing the price. Don't do like I did, and record the date and time of the lowest price, then contact them later. I got the price match, but it took some explaining. Call them each time you see a lower price. They don't mind if you call them each time the price goes lower.

Not the first time that happened. The price dropped to just around $2250 during Thanksgiving weekend, then scurried back up to $2400. It then dropped again during Christmas week, falling to its low just a day or so after Christmas, and is now back up. Amazon obviously has variable pricing for this model depending some calculation of available supply and overall demand. The electronic age has made that VERY easy to code for, so your goal as the buyer is to figure out when supply is high and demand is low because that's when the price drops.

Yes it seems something has changed with Amazon, maybe the management ,someone trying to make a name for him or herself, but i tell you what , Netflix recently raised all their prices and lost customers and their stock went down significantly!Love Amazon and am hoping these high prices are temporary as some sort of an experiment, but i can say this, in the past month Amazon has been the highest price on almost everything when i compare prices.

That is incorrect. Google and Amazon operate at the speed of lightening...actually faster. The prices can be there for a week and when attempt to order, the price at the store is incorrect. The problem lies with the store.

Wow, glad you mentioned this, I'm thinking of buying this. It's now $85. Amazon's pricing for many items does fluctuate, and sometimes quite a bit. It will likely decrease again, not sure when though. You just have to check for it as often as you can until you catch it.

Yeah! I realized that they went up too. I thought it was just me. I know that Amazon practices in targeted consumer marketing, where they raise prices for things you normally buy while someone else would look at the same product and it would be half the price. So I don't know if Amazon raised it to $65 now because of my preferences or if its the same for everyone else. Pretty shady tactics if you ask me.

this happens all the time to everyone, dont sweat it! Sometimes things go on sale or Amazon gets a better deal from the manufacturer or they need to get rid of old stock. Don't blame a great company like Amazon for price flutuations...its just the nature of the beast.

I got mine from Amazon last week for 1249, best price ive seen. Last night it was ~1450, now its 1379. I was surprised by how often Amazon changed the prices.

Our prices on Amazon are constantly fluctuating and it's based on a variety of things, such as rank, competitive sellers, etc.Let us know if you have any further questions.Thanks.

Im getting this tv at Best Buy if Amazon doesn't drop the price back down to around 1900 where it was 2 weeks ago. They keep raising the price and that is kinda of ridiculous. I can get this TV under 2k at my local Best Buy.
