from buds FAQ "Our website updates every 20 minutes, 24/7, with our current inventory and replacement cost. We do not price our guns manually based on our cost in each, rather we use a live download from manufacturers and distributors to set our price based on our current replacement cost. As our cost changes, the corresponding website price of each make/model will change up/down accordingly. Although our profit margin remains unchanged, our advertised prices will change frequently, sometimes several times per day." so keep checking and when you get the price you want put it on layaway

Douglas, the price usually creeps up as stock goes down even for one time sales prices. I would contact Buds to see if they will honor the recent price of $269 at LiveChat (available from 9AM to 9PM 7 days a week), the "Blue Chat Now" button at the bottom right of the page, or phoning at (859) 368-0371 (available 9AM to 9PM EST Monday through Friday).
