    Just looked, At this time, (~10:30 P.M. CST( $172.25.

    Mine is on order, and still shows the $99.99 price. I am now hoping they don't cancel my order. I might just file a complaint with the attorney general if they do.

      Look at the 10:00 AM Lightning Deal. Same router was 27.73. (No I didn't see it in time) This is the same router that was supposed to be 8$ or so a little while back from Damlow but turned out to be wrong (think we all knew that though). What's up with this router and Amazon that they keep bouncing the price around???

            I fully expect the $99.99 price to stick.

              Good luck. I have had one of those for about 3 years and its a really nice router.

                I've had the fixed base M12VC for about a year and really like it for hand use, so I thought I'd grab a plunge base for it....it's light, well balanced, and quiet....affordability is just a bonus!

                      Yeah, it was one of those "Lightning deals"... I got extra lucky I think... Hard for them to cancel the order once it's on the shipper's truck though...

                        Amazon is somewhat notorious for recalling shipments after they have been shipped. Unless it has been delivered to you and brought into your house, they can recall it.

                        One of the funniest stories about that involved a package that UPS had left on the porch. The driver returned to pick it up and literally snatched it away as the recipient was reaching for it.

                        Hope you get your router, though. Wish I had seen it in time to order one.

                          Not a good plan for the driver... I live in Texas!

                          Seriously though, I didn't think it was possible for them to recall an item once it has been in the carrier's custody. Not wanting to sound snotty or anything, just never heard of such a thing. Do you have any articles you can reference on that?

                            Mine showed today, and they're getting it back over my dead mangled body....my UPS guy is pretty big, but I think I can probably take the little blond Fedex girl!
