Hey, im sure everybody has experienced this before: you look up an item and 2 hours later when you go back the price increased by a little. So you hesitate and next day the price increase again. Is this the magic of a free market. OR is it companies using some sort of tracking mechanism to quickly change the price? Like your IP address, cookies, active X........
 
there is some truth there i heard that some companys check how many times an item has been looked at then they raise the price accordingly i saw it on digg.com i think
