WTH Amazon ---- Got up today before heading off to work (Yes, I know---long story...) - anyway, It WAS $305.37 just before I left about 12:45pm, and I get home a few mins back and it's back UP to $317.39 !!!!! F___K Me ! --- I "Guess" i'll be getting up tomorrow morning, or checking back Later there in a couple hours and Hope it goes back Down near the $300 threshold I was waiting for to Pull the trigger. Yea, it's only $12 diff., but it makes me crazy how this item (& others, including Bluray's, keep going up & down every day)

The price on this player has been fluctuating for the past week.

like, either After 12am, or maybe when I get up early it will be back to near the $300 area.

one can only hope and wait I guess.

Hey, it's like the stock market of late...intra-day price swings that'll make you sea sick

Its at $318.17 now. Its annoying, I live in the Uk too so i'm waiting for this to dip below $300. Can't see it happening this side of Christmas now.

PS. i know I can't use Amazon to import to the Uk but when Amazon drops their prices everyone else usually follows.

I had called Amazon about 2 months ago when I was going to buy a tv..because I noticed that the price flucuated ALOT during the day. They said it was not something that they controlled, it was a computer thing that monitors prices around the U.S to sort of keep in line with the current prices.

True or not..I dont know for that is just what they told me because I was frustrated when a tv I wanted jumped over $100 in the course of minutes.

Hello all, I have a bdp-s550 and it has been working great until lately. When I turn it on it boots to the home menu just fine. Then when I watch a blu-ray (have done this on multiple ones), I get the load icon while it loads then after it loads it just goes to a static screen. It looks like a black and white static screen but it has some color to it.

If I hit the home button it goes back to the home menu and once I re-enter it'll load and work again. Only a small amount of time the second load will go back to the colored static. I've switched HDMI ports on the tv and tried different movies and HDMI cables all get the error. Any ideas or is it just dying? Thanks in advance!
