Sorry that happened. I had the opposite happen to me with a different product where I bought right away and then the price dropped. Reaffirmed for me the wisdom of buying used.
He Who Hesitates…
My Isotek power conditioner, which I purchased about a year ago,came with a nice power cable, but I was considering upgrading to the Isotek Optimum, which sold for $1295. But I waited. The price then jumped to $1395, but again, I hesitated. I just looked again today and the price was $1995. Needless to say, I am not buying it. I’m sure some of you have experienced the same thing. Unfortunately, I cannot find any on the used market. I’ve seen this happen before in the past, but I’ve usually purchased what I wanted before major price increases.

@chayro - after Covid, generally prices are increasing everywhere especially in high-end audio components although sometimes stalling on a used component “might” be enough incentive for the seller to reduce the price. Also, newly released upgraded components “might” lead to discounts to dispose of older products to make room for newer inventory or a sale promotion of their newer components. Timing prices can be risky. |
