I really need one of these (or 2). It's been at that $169 price since I looked for it yesterday.

I wonder if newegg is doing that cookie thing like amazon. They know based on cookies where you are, and if you have looked at that item before, and if you are interested (repeated viewing) they raise the price.

I just looked at it for the first time and the price is $169 for me too.

169 here also, where did you see it for 139?

It's listed on the deals page here on Macresource - I went there as soon as I saw it yesterday, not long after it was posted and the price was at $169. I also saw it on techbargains - same link, same $169 price.

Call NewEgg?
Someone/something made a mistake, call a human at NewEgg at find out. Not that anyone actually verifies this stuff. Most of the "deal" stuff is glommed from somewhere else, not just here, but everywhere. Could have been a mistake, but it is propagated across the web.

wait just a minute. Are you telling me that things can spread on the internet? Does the government know about this?

It sounds like they should be keeping an eye on that sort of thing, maybe with some sort of department. They could give their operation some sort of cool name, maybe name their software something sinister, like condor, or eagle, or maybe raptor?

Maybe it's because when Macresource posted the deal it was already more than a week old?

Yes, and they just flagged your post from the workplace and are calling your soon to be ex-employer!
