March 21, 201312 yr There is another seller, fulfilled by amazon for $54.99, I just used some swagbuck giftcards and snagged this for $30 out of my pocket. Thanks for posting this, I check almost every day for this set to go for $55 and the one day I don't, they do finally do it!

Thanks for posting!
March 21, 201312 yr They've already bumped it back to $60.97... Haha that sure was fast. I wanted to grab a couple, but got distracted at work, dang it!
March 21, 201312 yr Author They've already bumped it back to $60.97... I figured it wouldn't last long but keep checking. It seems that with Amazon once a price moves from where it has been for a while it will start jumping all over the place. I wouldn't be surprised if this goes back to $55 or maybe even goes lower for a really short period of time.

When prices start to fluctuate lower, sometimes I pull the trigger too soon and lose out on a deal in the future.
March 21, 201312 yr Thanks LD! I scooped two before the price went back up again. You are always helping me (and others) out! Do you think this will get at 30%-ish discount at some point in the future? I'm on the fence, so $55 seemed like a good price point. I keep hoping it shows up in my Amazon daily deals for me section, but thus far no Hobbits to be seen.

I keep hoping it shows up in my Amazon daily deals for me section, but thus far no Hobbits to be seen. No problem. In my honest opinion you will see it lower. If you look at the price history by going to the set page here on BP and clicking on "View Price History" under Amazon you will find that many sets hit 25% off or more at some point. The down side is that that low price is usually just for a day or even a matter of hours. So if you aren't in the right place at the right time you will miss out. 21% off isn't bad at all for this set but if I had to bet I would say you will see it lower. By how much I'm not sure.
March 21, 201312 yr Under $60 is a good deal for this set. I really think it will be a winner, definitely the pick of the Hobbit theme so far.
April 8, 201312 yr I think it might be time for me to bite. This is one of the better looking sets in the collection and one of the most iconic scenes.
April 9, 201312 yr Back down to $56.75 this morning. And right back up to $60.97. Ugh, this is getting ridiculous and tiresome.
April 9, 201312 yr I know I'm stubborn, but I must wait until it hits 25%. Hopefully someday. Same here. I think we have plenty of time to pick up this one in the future.
April 9, 201312 yr And right back up to $60.97. Ugh, this is getting ridiculous and tiresome. Yeah, by the time I got home from work the price was back up. I guess the wait will continue.
April 11, 201312 yr Again, back down to $56.75 this morning. Ha ha. Let's see if it stays that price for more than 6 hours this time.
April 12, 201312 yr Ha ha. Let's see if it stays that price for more than 6 hours this time. Just like clockwork, it's right back up to $60.97. AHHHH! This one is driving me insane!
April 25, 201312 yr First time I use a price alert site. Quite useful really, I had already bought this set using the B&N coupon but if I hadn't I would have had the chance to get it!
May 1, 201312 yr Back down to $55.61 right now. I picked up another. I now have 2 and I'm going to wait to see if I can get more on clearance.
