Why in the world is this thing priced at $229.99?!

I think initially this mouse came with a wireless keyboard as well. The packaged deal was pretty spendy. I don't think Microsoft makes this particular mouse anymore, and that could be why the price is so high as well. Good luck!

Because some people think they can get away with charging that much. I have one for about 2 years now ($75) and love it. Made a huge difference with carpel tunnels. I recommend it highly. But if mine broke today and I had to replace it and $230 was the only option, I would actually think about it.

I love this mouse. It fits my hand perfectly - I use it for hours without discomfort. Buttons are in the perfect location and it's become an extension of my hand. I own three of them. It's not worth $229, but if there was no alternative, I'd probably consider buying it. It's all about personal preference against what the market will bear (and if they are not making them any longer...).

Forgot to mention I paid over $75 more for mine used through Warehouse Deals. It was just a dinged up box model, but I've never seen the price as low as it is now brand new, anywhere! Buy it fast, it's over $100 more mid-winter!

I saw it, too. But this morning, the price was back to >300. And Amazon price trackers (like Ookong.com) don't register the lower price. But i swear that I saw it.

Thank you for noticing! I thought I was the only one who questioned this. I would never have known if I hadn't tried to order one for my mom's birthday because she liked mine so much. I nearly dropped my teeth when it was listed at $119.00. I checked the next day and it was $249.00! In addition, there was a new seller. It appears as if the second seller bought out the first one. Other sites seemed to have their stock dried up as well. When I bought mine Amazon sold it and I used my prime membership to save on shipping. Seems like someone figured out a dirty little way to scam us. I wonder how many other low profile products are going the same way. I called customer service. I did not get a satisfactory response, so I e-mailed them just now. I hope they take notice.

I'll add another in the chorus of frustration here. . .I even had the stupid thing in my shopping cart from a couple of days ago because I was doing research on some other components I wanted to order at the same time. I got a "nice" message when I logged in today of the (multiple) price increases. Come on, Amazon, that's like walking up to someone in the store and putting a new sticker on something in their cart!!! On the bright side, however, this TV is $2,999 at Best Buy. . .and I'd have to pay 10% tax to boot!

it doesn't normally cost anywhere close. It's $149.99 direct from buttkicker or $129 at other outlets. Those prices are for the version 2 which fixed an issue with the power amp overheating on the version 1 (this one makes no reference to version so one must assume he is selling the first version). Some goofballs price items this way so they can make people feel that they are getting a deal by posting the amazon link and then asking $300 or some funky number.

I do believe on Amazon it is 49 dollars. Your right it is absolutely ridiculous!!!! I paid 17 dollars for the same thing.

Really good question and I have no idea. Further, the price has jumped ~100% since my purchase in late 2013. Something funny going on, for sure! Excellent question and insight!

The website also has it for $2199. You have to add it to your cart. The circular in the Sunday paper also listed it for $2199.

It is still on sale for $99 at B&N;, so don't buy it here. Plus, there's an extra 25% discount today!

I came here from Uncrate.com who is reporting it only costs $650 with WIRED.com saying it's $600, but it's still selling here for $900. Either price point is absurd in my opinion, and I'm just as amazed as you are people are buying it at such a high cost.

Thanks Bobster- I was also wondering where the link to the rebate had disappeared to. Why is the price of this item so labile? Yesterday, when I ordered it, it was $299 and today it's $364!

Plus there only $87.99 on Amazon.com! Don't know where you are getting $200 from.

That's the one I bought in July and sure didn't get it for $29.00! No wonder they're gone! I paid $69+ for mine and i do like it. It's a little heavy to handle, but is very sturdy which I appreciate.

Yes indeed... you were either ripped off or you didn't wait for a better price. While mine is used, I purchased it for $60-70 last year. Hope this helps... and get your money back if you can!
