From what I recall working with them in past demos were units sent to people who did a trial or test and then they change value based on use and scuffs

As far as I know the demo units are at a fixed price and are just passed back and forth to potential customers until someone doesn't send them back or I imagine they get damaged.

I work for costco.com. you'd be surprised how often that deleting the cookies/cache for the browser fixes these types of issues
The best equipment in the world is useless to the idiot who doesn't understand it.

So feasibly you could pay hundreds of dollars over the actual going rate for a item online by not keeping a clean phone? The companies/retailers just gladly take the extra money? No fear of bad public relations.

On our side it comes through for the right price.

It's pretty common to get different prices on items depending on who you are and what device you use. It's all about the tracking!

Or, you could pay less.  It's surprising how often you browse for something and then low and behold a day or two later it's cheaper.
