Last year I bought a brand new Puckipuppy ebike for $1,399.00.

I love it and feel like it was money well spent. In fact, I've been planning to buy a second Puckipuppy and have been stalking their website for the past few months looking at different models and mentally noting their regular prices. I was even going to order it directly from their website, cutting out Amazon.

Like most retailers they've been trumpeting about their upcoming "black friday" sale, and I've been anxious to see what kind of discounts were on offer. I checked again today.

I expected they would inflate their regular prices and then offer "big" discounts. We all know that's what happens, but I was not expecting something so blatant.

Last week, the bike I wanted was still listed for $1,399.00.

Today it's listed at... $1,399... marked down from $2,999.99.
