Pricing varies and can change from day to day on any item. If you've had the item in your cart "for weeks", it's not at all surprising that there was a price increase. Just putting something in your cart doesn't reserve the merchandise or lock in the price for you. 

 

There's a set of Callaway Rouge X irons that I've been looking at and the price has varied by as much as $200. They're not on any kind of sale today. However; the price of security camera I've been interested in has dropped $16. 

 

Prime Day is just another sales gimmick.

I bought three Fire Sticks.

 

But you have to be very careful.  Prime Day IS a gimmick.

I think most of the best deals will be on Amazon-owned electronic products.  Once in a while I'll buy (assuming it's a discontinued style) a Michael Kors top on Amazon for a reasonable price.  I looked this morning for any type of prime deals and there was nothing I could find.  Like others have said prime-day is a great marketing tool to get a potential buyer to check out the website.

Not in the least surprised.  Whenever I read the posts here venting outrage about the games they accuse QVC of, I always wonder where they've found to shop that doesn't have to be watched carefully.  For sure, Amazon has its prices on a rolling ladder -  they do it with their own offerings, the many vendors who use the Amazon platform do it, and so do myriad other of the places where I shop.

 

Sometime last year (I think) I read an article about the PD deals -  here's a surprise    --  the best deals according to that writer tend to be the Amazon products that make it easy for Prime members to shop even more than they already do.

@goldensrbest    Hope you bought that mattress when it was cheaper. Today it is not a prime buy.

I just got a cat tree for my cats that'll be here on Wednesday. It was $51.09 for a good sized one with very good ratings, so we'll see if they like it. It's the Amazons Basic Extra Large Cat Tree Tower with Condo. It's 56.3" tall with a  23.6" X19.3" base. It's got 215 customer reviews with a rating of 4.5 stars. The price is hard to beat and with free shipping it's too good to pass up. Now my crazy cats better like it.

Fly!!! Eagles!!! Fly!!!
