Shopping on Amazon for deals – how it differs from other retailers. Buy now … or wait?
Amazon is different than most retailers as they change their prices what seems like “randomly”. Although we really believe that this is when an item is viewed a lot or is selling well … prices change completely out of the blue.
I have had things in my cart and getting ready to buy them when the price jumped by a significant amount.
So, when if you see a price that you feel is a good value, don’t put it off too long. Also, if you find an item that you want but is priced too high, put it in your shopping cart and then click on “save for later”. You can go back daily (or as often as you like) to see if the price has come down any to where you are comfortable purchasing it.
I bought these boots for $25.20 in October. The NEXT day, the price jumped a bit … today they are $89.95! And it’s not a 3rd party seller. They are sold by Amazon.
I absolutely LOVE both of these and I keep checking back to see if the price has gone down again, but unfortunately, they have not.
The retail for these shoes is over $100 and you can see on fitflop.com that most of their sandals are no less than $60 this time of year.
So to sum it all up.
- When shopping on Amazon – don’t expect the price to stay the same. It may, but it also may not.
- Add items that you want to your cart and check on them frequently to see if the price has gone down.
- Search by using the dropdown box “low to high” to find the best deals.
You can also use the boxes on the left of your screen to narrow your search.
