Has this price dropped recently? My question is: Is the price now ($319.00) a deeply discounted sale price or Amazon.com's everyday price?

Yeah I already ordered all of the HDMI cables I need for this receiver from Monoprice. Now I will just act like I am not interested in it at all and maybe the price will drop back down. Think I'll head over to Circuit City tonight and just buy it there.

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.

Its strange...I bought this computer at Best Buy - 3 weeks ago (4/14) for $599...its now $749 there and at Amazon.com, the price has always been this high. Thought Amazon would be the less expensive route - guess I was wrong. The computer is great for my needs, though.

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.

I paid $2 plus $2 shipping. It is currently shown as $4. My guess is the price changes with popularity. I would keep watching and buy when it drops!

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 would expect that the closer you get to Black Friday the better the price will be become. I am keeping a close eye on this model myself. Just this past weekend it went from $1009 to $1004 to $999 in the span of a day or 2. Not much of a decline but a downward trend. If you can wait Amazon may have this a Black Friday special. If not the price should still be lower than it is now. Hope this helps!

Looks like its where you want to be, I see $114 right now at Amazon but I have also seen cheaper last week elsewhere, I guess price is subject to fluctuate.

Ditto here. Was going to order this and in 2 days the cost jumped up $80.00.Amazon does not seem to have a say in keeping the previous $286 price. Or do they? From the previous comments posted, a loss of 3-4 sales.

I'm waiting for the Amazon price to go down again (The price went up 60%), I was wondering if they are a new batch of the item, but still doesn't make sense. I don't like dealing with their marketplace sellers, Amazon stands behind the product they sell.

In 2012, this exact item and qty was being sold on Amazon for $21.99. In 2013, I paid $19.59. In 2014 it has skyrocketed in price. Still a good deal at $46? Possibly, but something has changed either with the supplier or the demand for the product. Kills me to pay $46 for something when it was available for 1/2 the price previously.

I didn't realize TV's trade like stocks these days??? I had it in my cart for $1055.00 on 8/24 in the AM and an hour later it went to $1,100+, now its $1,222? Funny how I have never seen anything go down in price after putting in my cart. I've seen things go down a bit when in saved items but never when you're ready to check out. I'm a huge Amazon fan but someone is playing games here.

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!

Prices fluctuate. If you shop on Amazon long enough, you'll find that prices for certain item categories (like physical books) are more stable than others (like personal electronics). It almost certainly wasn't a straight shoot from $17 to $28. The price probably rose and dropped, rose and dropped, before eventually reaching $28.00. And it's possible that the $17 price listing was from another vendor than the $28 price listing. $17 sounds awful low for this product. I'm guessing the $17 price was from a third party--not shipped and sold directly by Amazon. Marketplace sellers will sometimes lower the item price to draw customers in, only to raise the shipping and handling to more than compensate for the subtotal deduction. Keep an eye on the price--check it every day. In my experience, if the price reached $17 once, it probably will again. But it might take a few more months to get there.
