Why it's Wait

The price went up on 2026-10-17 from $249.99 to $269.99, and the record shows it back at $249.99 after earlier hikes, with $229.99 coupons in October 2024, February and April 2026. Odds of a better sale within six weeks are only about 19%, and nothing is announced, so this is a soft wait. Since it's already $20 above where it usually sits, passing on today costs little. Even a return to $249.99 would be a drop of more than 7%.

Next sale, maybe: Early December, around $250.
