Then click to NOT upgrade automatically. Mine is already set to not upgrade so I am not sure exactly what it says but it will be in the top left side.

You are looking at two different sellers. That is why the price is different- it has nothing to do with Prime. So with Prime 3rd party sellers (in this case Sandisk) often offer free shipping. That is just an extra bonus. Without Prime you would pay whatever the price is AND shipping. Now if you go direct through Amazon (like you did today) you still get free shipping- so you would have paid $13.02 and that is it. I searched for that item and I don't see it but anyway I think that might be the issue. You can buy almost anything from Amazon directly (not a 3rd party) and get the exact same price and free shipping on the item. Oh I see. You are looking at two different sellers.

However, I am at least happy to hear that you guys are getting really good deals on shipping. Maybe it's just the items I've been looking at? I know prices on amazon change quickly and I'll have to see if it pans out for me in the next 4 weeks, but so far (in my case) amazon is just trying to make a few extra bucks with Prime. I'll hope for the best but in the mean time happy shopping and deal hunting! Sure, here is an example from my comment:

Amazon Prime: Sandisk 8GB SDHC Memory Card (SDSDB-8192, Bulk Package) by SanDisk
Buy new: $24.99

The exact same item which I purchased today off regular Amazon: $13.02 + 5.99 shipping

I have never had that experience. I have never seen a single item priced higher with Prime. Do you have an example that I can look at? I post Amazon deals every single day so I am on the site constantly and have yet to run into this problem. Thank you! Really? I have never had that experience.

I've never come across an item that has a different price for accounts with Prime and those without. seriously, what is an example of an item that costs more with Prime?

I've been doing a little shopping on amazon and have a few items in my cart (haven't purchased yet due to funds) and got excited to hear about this PRIME opportunity. However, after signing up, I found out that amazon prime is way more expensive for the exact same items...even more than paying for shipping on my regular account! What's up? A joke, is what I think, and it'll be far better to spend $25 and get free shipping and save up swagbucks to get any sort of deal out of amazon.
