I bought this on Jan 1, 2014 went to purchase another one and the price went up $10.00. why?

Probably because whoever you bought it from was tired of losing money and going out of business. A lot of "sellers" on Amazon think that a cheaper price will bring them more business and eventually go broke.

there are many sellers- distributors on Amazon selling at various prices, etc. Many distributors are selling under MAP - minimum advertised price. The manufacturer will always lower the price to compete with violators of their Minimum Advertised Price. The MSRP on the SuperEar is $34.95 and ALL distributors are required to sell the product at MSRP on Amazon. The product originally sold for $39.95 and the manufacturer has reduced the MSRP to $34.95. The unit is a deal at MSRP as it carries a 3 year warranty and is used for ADA/CMS compliance in the healthcare industry. No other product can touch it for $34.95. there are many sellers- distributors on Amazon selling at various prices, etc. Many distributors are selling under MAP - minimum advertised price.

It is possible that the item was priced incorrectly and you benefitted. The seller was violating MAP pricing and may have been caught. I cannot say for sure. But current price us now proper so you just took advantage if that discounted price.

I paid around $13 in December 2012 for one. The price must have gone up since then.

Yeah I was lucky enough to get it in the middle of march for 1580 then i saw the price went down to 1499 and i called amazon and got a refund for the 81 dollars. I would log on at different times to see the price and found that the price could change a few hundred dollars each day depending on who the seller is. Nine times out of ten it was from amazon though. My guess is that they just plain ran out of them, they were a steal.

I'm sorry, but I don't know why the price changed. I would have to check with tech support.

I have been following this item and pricing too. I was wondering what caused the price to just double. It must be an error.

I paid $459.00 for mine a few months ago. This is an amazing price if it's for a brand new one.

The price increased from $1,631 to $1,742.97, and now increased again to $1,815.44. I actually had it in my cart to order it in the next few days, but I just removed it after the price change.

I am guessing that you are looking at two different suppliers. There are different prices for the same thing depending on who you buy it from.

Good question! the price is now 60$ not sure what is going on here. someone care to tell us why the price on this item keeps going up, I paid 25$ for it and that was too much.

Hi, Not sure who you are asking this is a random message board but I can say this particular item had a price increase from the manufacturer so that is probably why we have no control over that but I know it did not double. Thanks

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.

I have no idea why the huge price increase, but I SURE AM HAPPY I bought mine in April, 2011, for $229.99. And, I am thrilled with its performance.Chuck

I paid about $28 for it back in May, and I was going to get another one, but cannot believe the price hike! It's got to be some sort of error. It's a great fan, but not for that price!

When purchased 6 months ago, it was 10 units for $31 including shipping. This one seems 1 unit only and it was not the same supplier. There are others available in markets.
