It drives me crazy when prices of some products changes multiple times in just several minutes span … I’m curious about your experience with buying stuff/planning holidays before dynamic pricing became a common thing.

    Okay, interesting. I don’t fly, I don’t book hotel rooms, but I do buy stuff online and I haven’t seen this ever. Weird.

      You’re not really supposed to notice, but it definitely happens. Biggest offender for normal retail stuff is Amazon. Put an Amazon url into a price tracker like camelcamelcamel and you’ll see a huge amount of variation for most products.

        I’m aware that prices can vary from day to day, but wild changes up and down within minutes is news to me.
