Look how much AMAZON is selling Bar Method's Change Your Body for!!!

http://www.amazon.com/Bar-Method-Cha...9729437&sr=8-1

(At least it qualifies for free super saver shipping....)

It's not Amazon. It's a smaller company. It's just fulfilled by Amazon(ie., the seller sends the product to Amazon and then Amazon ships it for them). Still....that's insane considering you can buy them from The Bar Method for $20 or whatever.

Ahh, missed that. Usually I assume it's Amazon when it has Free SSS.

But still! $69!

It's probably the copy I traded in a month or so ago!

There are a couple vendors with this that have fulfillment by Amazon for both new and used. I think this happens with popular items from small companies when Amazon itself doesn't carry it. Then the 3rd party people mark it up a lot.

Also, watch out for Woody's Books, though they don't seem to carry DVDs. I think their business model is 'if we can get a few suckers a month to pay our outlandish prices we can make a decent amount with almost no work.'

A while back there was a Leslie workout that went up to over $229,000! The price watch was fun. http://forum.videofitness.com/showth...ight=algorithm

Apparently there are a few vhs tapes on Amazon that go for $999.99.

But check out the reviews:

Quote:

"While the film is low quality and the girls in the background are there only to amuse you while you watch, its not that bad of a work out... If nothing else you can watch it as a comedy and burn calories that way."

"This was the worst workout DVD I've ever seen!! Very Unprofessional. The Voiceover didn't match the instructor's lips... The two of the four girls in the background were more focused on fixing their hair [as] opposed to working out..."

I must have this tape - it sounds like comedy gold!
