In general, the phone price will drop as time goes by. Last Friday my dad wanted to buy a new phone and he sent me a link and therefore I could buy it for him. Since I don't go to office on Saturday and Sunday and I am not sure when I will be at home during weekends. So I planed to buy this phone on Monday and it can deliver to the office on Tuesday. However, today I checked the phone price and it increased about $15. How can I expect it will increase the price? Such case hardly happens. So I told my dad let's wait for a few weeks as I am not pleased that it suddenly increased the price.

@LadyDuck But it is just the same phone. How come the price will be different within few days? I can only accept if its price decreases

How strange it is! As it makes sense that digital device price will be lower as time goes by.

@youless They add more memory, more features and I think that the price of the components is increasing.

If I didn't know the original price last Friday, then I would probably just buy it.

@psanasangma My dad agrees to buy it later. I check the price everyday. I think its price shall be lower a little after two weeks. I guess it is already a long time for digital devices.

Most probably it is a new phone and the demand for it is still high that is why there is an increase in the prices. The newer phones are the ones that really changes especially when they are popular and in demand.

Yeah, this is why I don't want to buy very new phones. I don't mind it has been available in the market after half a year.

What I hate about mobile phones is that the price fluctuates very often.
