Looks like WD finally got enough drives to fill the channel as the price
has dropped from $305 to $280 over the last couple of weeks. My target
price is $250 at which point I plan to buy at least two, maybe three to
jump our internal backup LAN drives from 4 TB to 8 TB.
Did you create a price alert, here for example
https://camelcamelcamel.com/Red-8TB-...context=search
or are you just checking back now and then to see the current price?
Checking back occasionally.
As you may have noticed, the price of that drive dipped below $250
earlier last week and shows no signs of bottoming out. Mid-week it was
about $247 and today it's about $236. The price graph at camelx3 (link
above) shows a steep and continuing drop.
Yes, a very perplexing drop.
And now, the WED 8 TB USB external drive is back up to $250, just when I
was going to buy another one. The price had been down to $189.

For that one, I wonder why Amazon jacked the price up to $391 for a
short period. That couldn't have been good for sales, except for folks
who aren't paying attention to price.

Currently, as I type this, Amazon says it's only available from third
parties, so maybe the $189 price will come back when Amazon gets it back
in stock.
Hello,
It seems you are assuming that everyone sees the same price
when browsing Amazon, but I was under the impression that
they "tailored" prices to each customer, using a combination
of cookies, IP address, user-agent sniffing, and time of day.
Am I mistaken?
Regards.
