Does anyone here buy shoes on Amazon? Their pricing is a mystery to me. Two examples I've had in the last couple of weeks - a pair of Timberland shoes that go for $130 on Zappos were $87 on Amazon - a good deal, right? I put them in my cart but didn't buy and a week later they were down to $69. A few days later they were down to $55 and I bought them. They went as low as $52, currently back up to $87.
A pair of Sebago shoes that go for $110 across the internet were $110 on Amazon. I liked them, but wasn't going to pay $110, so I put them in my cart to see what happens. A couple weeks later they were $38! I bought a pair and a couple hours later thought, "that's a great deal, I'll get another pair". Went to do so, price back up to $110.
Why do they do this? Are they making anything selling at such a discount?
On any given shoe style the price varies wildly by size and color.
Anyone have any insight?
