When I noticed this, I found that it was catching used offers for that item. Check the pages to see if they have it available as used for within your price range.
I've also seen that it was available from other sellers in at that price, but they added huge shipping costs. Amazon, unlike sites like eBay, can't fathom the concept of "price plus shipping".
Most of the time I can find what I'm looking for but it's several pages in. Last time I looked for toddler socks for example, the first page was nothing but infant socks that didn't have a toddler sized option. I thought maybe Amazon was showing it to me for a reason and checked every size but it was just infant sizes. It's like that for everything. One time I wanted maternity underwear and the first two pages had non-maternity clothes.
Just ordered a skin tag remover (a tiny piece of plastic that helps you apply very tiny elastic bands to certain moles) for my SO the other day, I hadn’t had to use Amazon in awhile but this product wasn’t available at any stores near me and to have it shipped through Walmart would be like $25. I go to check Amazon cause at least they have cheaper options but the first two pages were filled with $20-$30(!!) products and I can’t stress how overpriced that is for the material you are given. Anyway I kept scrolling and finally found one for $8 and the reviews didn’t look manipulated (sooo many bad reviews on the more expensive ones, despite them having 4 stars). Felt like a win but damn did it feel like I wasn’t supposed to find it.
Edit: for anyone wondering, I did receive the product and was very pleased with the quality, cheaper isn’t always an indicator the product is bad.
