I researched a small, b/w laser printer for a friend last week. $100 at Amazon.
I return to Amazon yesterday to look for a wrist rest. In the "recently viewed" section of the page, that printer is $130.
I've come to consider seriously the implication that ~30% changes in pricing have in aggregate, in the demand this gaming places upon my time and attention. One or two items, I may say "time is money" and just buy.
When the entire system starts to feel gamed, like a casino in Vegas, I start looking seriously at my options for simply opting out.
Once again, information asymmetry is being used to disadvantage the small player.
