I am sure it is a multifaceted reason why the price has dropped. Tomy, I have noticed, being a bigger company with different toys coming out would be able to drop prices on the I-Sobot as they have different toys gaining them capital. The same would be for WowWee. A company like Hitech, or even Futaba would have to sell a much more specialized item, making it harder to keep prices down. All in all I am stoked to have bought I-Sobot for $100!

Sometimes things cost a lot of money just because they can, and people will pay it. I suspect this is what happened with the Motorola Razor. I’m not sure where robots like i-SOBOT come in on that spectrum… My guess is that it had a pretty decent profit margin when it was first released because it was “new” and “smallest” but I’m not sure how much above (or below?) $100 it’s actually WORTH now.

I sure am curious, though.

If you search some other robot sites for this I saw a coupon code posted for free shipping. Look up on Google “I-Sobot, price drop”

This is shocking. In the UK the isobot is still around £165 (which is $200) at the cheapest I can find

Wow! That’d be a great price… if they didn’t have a bizarrely high $76 to ship it to this part of the world. :-/
