Mark, why don't you just use your sister's computer?

I so agree with you, Rick. Contractors should not be allowed (by law) to act as retailers. Pick one, please, greedy trash.

Mark, Amazon has a script that will lower prices to entice a person to buy. This also happens if you view an item more than 2 times, i think it is after the 3rd time you view the item, the price may change slightly... My cousin told me about this a couple years ago.. Also, if you look closely mark, all but one of the items you listed were decreased in price by cents.. there was only 1 item that the cost was reduced by 3$... So, this is much more of a psychological tool than an economic tool.
Does this answer your question? Ha! Mark's been psyched by a retail website! Ha!

I keep telling you guys that I'm not bright!
No, seriously, I haven't heard about the scripts or anything, but HAVE noticed most fluctuations are minimal.
But yes, I'll bite more often when there's a substantial difference. There's lots of CDs that I want, but don't really want to be buying more than 1/2 a week. I might as well go for the ones that have dropped a few bucks.

Especially since gluing them back together can't be good for playback.

Andrew, do you think they're halved circumfrentially or diametrically?

Sorry about that.
1/2 = one or two.
