Why'd the price get jacked up? I was just ready to buy a pair of J2's, then come online this week and find they've gone from $14.95 to $23.95.. and this with a newer model on the market?
211599
And now they are saying they were $79.95 to try to make $14.95 sound like a good Cyber Monday deal? Really?

I was gonna buy one of these today and they raised the price by $350?! WT_?!Yesterday I noticed that it was being shipped from TigerDirect and today it's from Amazon. Are they gonna switch the price again?

They should be at MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) for $499 for the pair. If it is not then its probably not an authorized dealer and would be wary on that. Thank you

I have thought so too. The dramatic price drop now got me suspicious. After seeing the negative reviews around these days I believe you're right. I should have thought about this before buying this piece. Like J. Brooks, I am crossing my fingers. Please don't make me deal with customer service one more time!

Best price this month was $1595 which lasted only 2 hours. Ever since, Amazon been out of stock. I wonder if they will ever be back in stock.

Why have these jumped $100? Yeah, they are discontinued but the replacement model are close to $200 also. What's the deal?

J&R; have these in stock and are shipping immediately. I cancelled my order with Amazon and ordered from J&R; yesterday. My receiver is already in-transit. I did have to pay $2.95 for shipping, but it beats waiting for Amazon to get these in stock.Edit: Actually, J&R; is offering free shipping on the 820. Originally only from their direct website, it now shows the same at Amazon.

Yeah agreed here. I hope they come down in price. I have several pair of the regular ones (for work & home, etc.) but this price is just too much.

Definitely not kidding. I had a slight problem with the J2's (the left earbud wasn't getting full range, weak on the low frequency) and emailed them. Within a day I got an email back answering my question and shortly thereafter (after trying to solve the problem myself) shipped a completely new pair. Which coincidentally work very well.Hope it goes as well for you!

Resellers are selling at a premium, probably because these were pre-sold-out. Anything to make a quick buck I guess. The company who makes them were selling for about $13.

There is some independent seller (for some reason?) selling for that price, but through ReSqueeze and Amazon they are $14.99 :)

Heelo JC, This item is back in stock but the $99 price was a special price that we were offering. The price is now at the regular price.

Not sure about the yellow, but I stopped buying these because I got them for 9.97 in March and now they are 21.27, what is the deal with the huge price increase?

It was $177 for a a few days and i was lucky enough that i waited for the price drop. I was ready to pay $250+for the pair but jumped on it when it was at $177. For that price I would say ARE the BEST speakers out there. Even at $250 you can't go wrong with them.

I was about to order, but then saw the price increase. I've felt like I was watching commodity trading on the pricing the last couple of weeks. Just a guess on my part, but perhaps they are starting to receive units with the new 2009 maps, and that is the reason for the uptick in price? Again, merely an uneducated guess on my part. I'm looking at pcrush(d0tc0m) to order at $235 now.

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.
