I have been tracking the price of the cooler master hyper 212+ for the last 2 days. I have the money but dont need the cooler as of yet. Next month i will probably buy it. In any case so far the price has jumped from as little as 25.31 to $29.99 each day it has been a different price.

Has anyone noticed this with other items on Amazon.

I use thetracktor to track Amazon price history and notify me when an item I'm watching hits a certain price.

Amazon always does this and it's part of the reason why they're the #1 internet retailer. Right after the annual Twilight Zone marathon, they jacked up the price of the series on DVD by $100. A week later, they dropped it back down $100 to the price it had been for the last 6 months.

Yea, I was watching a pair of Audio Technica ATH-AD900's and once I was ready to buy the price jumped up to $400 :S

I quickly rushed on over to AccessoryJack.com and purchased for $254 (including the shipping and handling from Hong Kong). If you find a good deal on Amazon it would probably be best to get it at that time due to the fluctuations.

I recently ordered a 50 lg plasma and when I pulled the trigger it was fulfilled by amazon for $1199. I checked it 2 days later it had jumped to 1399 and a few days more it jumped to $1599. and was no longer fulfilled by amazon. That seems like a pretty big price jump to me.
