Amazon’s “was” prices, checked

3,763 of the offers we track carry a crossed-out former price from Amazon, and we check each one against what we saw Amazon charge. Listed here is every one whose “was” price we have never seen Amazon charge (same product, same condition) in a watch of at least 7 recorded prices or 10 days. The discount against the highest price we did see is the one worth believing.
