I see that the original price for the scale in black is $30+ but the original price for the silver is about $16. Why the difference?

Any two or three of the exact items can be priced differently on any retailer due to popularity/demand of color.

Silver... I bought this inexpensive scale for my son to take to dorm with him (athlete, has to maintain weight) vs. taking our more costly scale from home - he says its good...

The $170 version is the Mini, a newer model, smaller than the original. That smaller model didn't exist when I made my purchase, or I probably would have bought it instead. Whichever size you buy, I suggest the silver color, as it looks sleeker than black.

about $3 and the obvious. (Tho they should be the same low price, charging so much for color/print-scale is a ripoff.)

Since you didn't specify price, I'm not sure what you're blathering on about. It is presently $58 (I got it a few days ago for $55), which is less than the average of .10 a piece.

It's good for a lower end scale.if you have a little more money,Tanita has The scale,from 70.00_ 200.00.I am buying the 70.00 model,it will probably Last ME 10years, like the one I'm replacing

I only got 2 white ones, but when I purchased it, it was only $42.99 and the listing didn't include the black/silver ones. It looks like they've upgraded the item and raised the price to compensate.

They are essentially priced the same and practically do not differ that much. I had both, newer one works better for me in general (and finish-wise, black one goes better with my camera).I guess the old one becomes a collectible now :-)

That's a good catch. I never noticed it's listed at $154.99. Owning a couple I do know that the figurines are pretty cool.

There's no difference in quality -- the prices just seem to fluctuate for no reason. $17.99 is a great deal for the black, though -- thanks for the head's up! I just ordered three of them!

I dont know about the other scale but i have this one and ot works great at a very reasonable price. It convenient, its small enough to fit in your perfectly and it does the job.

It's cheaper since it's the latest offering from Casio and they're trying to encourage current owners to update and prospective buyers to get the model that looks more "current".In some Asian countries you can still find the FX-991MS selling for $30 USD, but any newer models are around the $20 mark. In case you were wondering, the natural textbook display can be turned off and the calculator operates exactly like the FX-991MS. I use all of my Casio units in non-textbook mode for speedy entry.

I am confused by this as well. Why would the older, out-dated version cost more? It is not an antique!

How much is it listed for? It looks like the old one. You should be able to tell from the price, also. The original was $99 and up last year, as they're no longer in production.

The silver is the corded version, while the black is the rechargeable (and more expensive) version.

Try jr.com, they also sell the Black version for $399.99 although they are also out of stock....I placed an order with them a few days ago, hopefully they won't cancel.The current price of $649.99 is just ridiculous. Geez I hate merchants who take advantage of a situation like this.
