Artificial price increase so that you can post “discounts” on Prime Day

Amazon Prime Days ran on July 16th and 17th (at least here, in Canada).

This price jump happened a day before and ended two days later, but this item was “on sale” during those two Prime Days.

I’ve been seeing this scam far too often, especially with food items. Why isn’t this illegal yet?

I had a DVD box set in my wishlist for a while. It was “50%” off during the sale, but I think the price actually went up by about $10. I did still snag a bunch of movies for under $20 each, which at least feels like a good price.

Put a few items on your wishlist, and watch the fluctuations, even without prime days.

Overall, you save a buck or two on prime days, that’s all.
