How come it so much cheaper than the one from the retailer?

They're in perfect condition. It was a gift and I'm not looking to make a big profit, so I thought $99.99 was a good price.

It is cheaper because it is not like you would buy it at a retail store. It doesn't come in the actual Otterbox cardboard box. The difference is it comes in an easy to open cardboard box. All the same components, materials, warranty and such. I guess the that is one reason the price is lower, plus, if you were to buy it with plans to re-sell it, you couldn't call it "new" on the condition it doesn't come in the original box. It's new, I ordered one my 2nd one (the first came in the original box the first time around for my old phone) and my S4 I ordered it this way and there was no difference in the merchandise, just not the Otterbox packaging.

I bought the cheaper one and found no difference I guess it is the markup the person wants and see where it is shipping from some of the cheaper ones comes outside of the USA.

The only difference is the sellers. The other one that costs less is sold from and shipped by Amazon.

I believe that you looked at pricing from two different distributors for the product. This is common. I would say that they are identical.

retail price at store is always pricier. I got a commuter case for $16 with free 2 day shipping from Amazon.

I know what you mean. They upped the price on me when it was in my cart by nearly $200, so I went with another vendor.Amazon's current $2,499 price is the same as Circuit City, which isn't very competitive. There are several places online that sell it cheaper at the moment with free shipping. Just go to nextag or pricegrabber to find the best deal.

Looks exactly the same. Probably different sellers putting it as different names to their models. If you go on to the web site and click on one, then open anothe page and look at the second. They are exactly the same, same size, same model, same colour.Get the cheaper one and save yourself money. If there is a new and used one, get the new one.

I think it's because there's labor for Amazon to open the package and make it easier for the customer to open.If you don't have any trouble with opening packages, get the cheaper one.

Hopefully this is a mistake by Amazon. It happens from time to time. Other retailers have it as low as $279.

Amazon only price matches (gives you a refund) if you bought it from them , not one of their third-party sellers. Also, the lower price must be from them.I bought it when it was at $2899 and got two refunds to make it $2699. I always use the call me immediately button uder the Help section to do this.Also, the shipper they used got it to me 6 days before when Amazon said I'd have it.

Hello Lynda , I bought a new one just because the price difference wasn't that great so I just went with new! I am sure if you want to save a couple of bucks you couldn't go wrong!

You are getting the same product as in the stores. It may have a damaged box ( more cosmetic than torn or ripped), or it may be short dated. Either way it is the same item but at a significantly lower price.

Are they the exact same models? If so, they might just be trying to sell you the higher priced item by tricking you. If they are the same, go with the lower price. Good luck.

Also, I checked bestbuy.com and they have this model in stock, however the price is a lot more for some reason...

Thanks Bobster- I was also wondering where the link to the rebate had disappeared to. Why is the price of this item so labile? Yesterday, when I ordered it, it was $299 and today it's $364!
