It is the way it is, amazon doesn't set these prices and doesn't care to make sure prices stay at a certain price or range, in fact they probably don't mind when sellers up the price because then they(amazon) make even more money from that order because each item that is on Amazon, Amazon takes 15% of the sale price.

I figured you would respond again. And I'll say it again, Amazon can choose to not follow what market sellers are selling their product for. In fact for a long time, they were establishing themselves as the preferred vendor by consistently pricing an item below what third party sellers are listing their product for. But lately, Amazon has just been following suit with this idiotic stock market like pricing scheme. I go to shop and choose with one criteria being price when I purchase. I'm buying a product. Not a commodity futures stock. It's getting so bad that now brick and mortar stores are becoming more attractive in terms of convenience, service, and pricing. The subject of this thread says it all that Amazon is no longer doing a price guarantee which they did before.
