why are these more expensive than the other black matte phantoms?

Boomphones recently had a sale about 2 weeks ago. I guess amazon didn't change their prices. I'd suggest buying the one at the lowest price.

They Are the original Boomphones phantoms, they come with 2 wires and a hard case, the newer ones come with a bag, also they have boomphones etched on the sides.

There's several sellers on this item. I'd assume it's because the seller that offers the "free shipping" can no longer afford to ship these for free. When I ship them, it costs me between $35-50 in shipping with the weight and bulkiness of these mirrors. Jeremy

they are pretty similar but i believe the matte (regular black) has a slightly glossier finish... almost too slight to tell...

I can only assume that it is due to supply and demand. The new ones are $135+

Yes, I have this case for the same Phantom. A little expensive but a must have..!!

I would guess because way more people buy the black one over the blue one. I have both now, and I can tell you the only difference is the color. From what I have seen with both, they are the exact same thing in the same color. I don't want to tell you one thing and have you go and buy it, but that's what I've noticed.

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.

Probably the different colors, since Titanium generally cost more then black plastic.

Third party sellers. Amazon probably doesn't have any in stock. If they get any more in, the price will go back to msrp.

I really have no idea!! I saw the blue one & that was that, seems like something would be put in or maybe they switched prices & forgot the black one!! Maybe if you email the company & ask them they will have an answer for you!! Good Luck in finding your answer!!!

I had the exact same question. It's surprising not many have noticed the huge difference in the List Price between these 2 sets. Does anyone have an answer to this question??

Same thing here. They were even cheaper than $120 not so long ago. I end up buying them from another on-line retailer for ~$114.00 No point in paying the current price when we know what these things really cost.

I have purchased 3 of the large ones and they have always been in the $35 range. I have no idea what offer you saw but it would either be for a much smaller size or slow seller color perhaps or not the real deal.

The only thing that isn't black is the mount bolts, spacers and seat plate. Won't even notice them. Looks great on my phantom. the stitching matches the stock seat too, like it belongs there

I don't believe so. I bought blue and I think they were more money than the black. Pricing may be based on popularity of the colors.

Easy, they're out of stock so one idiot had to charge an outrageous price for them. You should see them in the $5-10 range.

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.
