Amazon pricing makes no sense. - eviltoast

We have been buying extra strong PG Tips British tea from Amazon because we think American tea is way too weak. 3 boxes of 80 were about $40 last time I bought them a few months ago. They’re now $80. Thankfully we discovered we can get an order of 6 for $60, but we have to wait until mid-February for the to arrive. Meanwhile, a single box of the same tea, which we’ll have to get in the mean time, is $20. Yes, a single box is less per box than a 3-count box order, but you still save if you buy 6 boxes. How does any of that make sense?

    The price hasn’t changed in ages though. And the last time it did it was maybe by $5. This is a 100% change!

      Right. It’s obviously not a “real” change in price, it’s some bullshit.
