Okay Amazon is going crazy on price resets...most of the pricing is garbage 40%-ish discounts...although some of the newer stuff is decently discounted (as they are new releases)...most likely to match 1 or more retailers.

But it appears that Amazon is raising prices on many titles EN MASSE.

With online consumers using price tracking like crazy now...I'm unclear how this is a winning strategy. Strategic pricing won't work for smart shoppers who know what the discount percentages on certain title types and publishers.

Dunno...anyone have any thoughts on this?
