- bediger4000 15y agoScott Adams is not the only one. I've noticed things exactly like this. I suspect that the on-line retailers do make pricing as complicated as possible, so as to avoid direct price comparisons. Offering goods for sale with automatically-comparable prices leads to classes of goods becoming economic commodities, distinguishable by price alone. That's a bad situation for retailers, so they've responded by making prices non-comparable by complication. Cell-phone plans seem to have ended up the the same way.
