Why is this version so much more expensive than the orange?

I havnent noticed a difference in either of them. My guess is, solid black appeals to the majority of consumers than a bright orange, so they're charging more for the item with the most demand to make more money.

The black one is carbon steel. The orange one(linked) is stainless steel.https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00BFIBOJW/ref=pd_aw_sbs_468_of_5?ie=UTF8&refRID;=RZDZ5EHQZJNW8EG743MB

It has the fire starter, and sharper built in. Has an extra belt hook deal. The back of the knife is a perfect 90 degree angle so it works really good with the fire starter. The orange Ones are almost to smooth. This one had a sharper edge from the factory and it seems very easy to keep it on compared to the orange ones I have. Either are excellent knives but I do prefer the black one in about every single way except the price lets me feel better about bashing the orange ones around I guess

I have it. I think it's more red than orange. Definitely not an orange orange, if anything it's a red/orange.

I agree wholeheartedly. I don't understand the price difference. I went out and bought it at my local Walmart for $3.87. If Amazon came anywhere close to that I would order it from them, but I can't justify the price right now.

No I just assumed the more "popular" colors were more expensive. I bought the green because it was the least $ at the time. It was perfect.

I bought orange & have never seen or touched the red & white version. So I'm unaware of any such differences. What differences exactly do u speak of? Different how?

The more expensive one is enhanced and the newest version . The 199.00 is the older model.

It's a collector's item. That's part of the reason why it costs so much. There are also probably a limited number of these being made. Limited supply + demand = a higher price.

I have purchased both for gifts. I paid $49 and $110. The more expensive machine is more metal and less plastic, looks better, and it is heavier. From what I can tell, the less expensive machine requires a little more pressure to process the frozen fruit. The higher priced machine appears to get the job done a little easier, and seems like it might last longer. Both make equally delicious frozen desserts!

Hi, I really don't know why apparently a newer model costs less than the older one. As I wrote in my review, this product turned out to be a useless device, it could be because of a defect, I'm not sure. Maybe I should have bought an "EDIMAX" model instead. Hope you have a better luck. Regards,Agron

Supply and demand. More people want the black, so the 2 tone isn't selling as well -and therefore is cheaper.

Yeah, now the price is just insane. Even the Olympus site, which clearly shows both the white and black model by the product description only shows "black" under the color option drop down. This is just like the iPhone 4 fiasco, I don't get it.

Hi Phuong! Our prices have much to do with the demand of each color. These cases have been on sale for a while now, and each color costs a bit more or less than others, due to their popularity and the stock we have available. If there is anything else we can help you with, please feel free to contact us here:

Mine is the same and it's not what I wanted. I know there is a different version that is orange but I wanted and thought I was getting the Violet Ray.

There's a lot of discussion about the advantages of the old version in the Amazon user reviews of both versions. I bought the (more expensive) old version and am happy with it, but never tried the newer one for comparison.

Personally, I prefer the orange (though still more expensive to buy online than at Whole Foods or at Sprout's) and am really glad it is priced less than the lemon - it is my favorite!

There is another model by the same MFG. - "Bruder Scania R-Series Garbage Truck - Orange", it's about $25- more expensive and is rear loading/dumping, slightly larger.
