Typically price does not fall much more than this. Currently observed at $44.12, 47% below its standard $82.49 shelf baseline. Most of the time a markdown period like this typically lasts about 4 weeks over the past 2 years. Now that we are already in such a period, it's quite likely that price is heading back toward $82.49 before too long.

Data source & attribution

The underlying Amazon market data on this site is retrieved via the Keepa API. Keepa is the source of the sales rank, price, rating and review figures Volatilo records. Volatilo is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by Keepa.

Nothing on this site is live. Volatilo reads each tracked product once a week and records the date of that reading. The most recent observation on this page was taken on 5 September 2026. Every figure shown is therefore a dated historical observation, not a current price, rank or availability status. Amazon prices and availability change continuously and without notice.

For granular data, go to Keepa. Volatilo publishes one reading a week and a small set of derived weekly signals. Keepa holds the continuous, high-resolution record — full price history graphs across every offer type, rank history at fine granularity, price-drop alerts and product tracking. Anyone who needs the detailed article rather than a weekly summary is better served directly at keepa.com.

About Volatilo is written and published by one named person, working alone. Who runs this, and how it is paid for.
Method Every figure here is one reading taken on a stated date. How this record is built, and what it deliberately does not publish.
