I can't believe I'm asking this, but I'm going out of my mind online shopping (more specifically, trying to help my mother buy Christmas *kitten* online).

She wants all these Ninjago things for the grandkids. Picked them out and put them in her cart on Amazon.com. They're changing price ever two seconds, etc. I believe it's b/c Lego recently discontinued so many of the Ninjago figures, that the price for a one inch tall plastic ninja is freaking $20 or more.

Amazon.com in general is really getting annoying to try and handle, when it comes to different shipping costs, etc. Does anyone have better ideas of where to shop online since these things aren't really available in the store here?

    Prices change because they're being sold by folks using the marketplace, hoping to be competitive. In my experience, it is typically the best price, for that very reason.

    I agree Amazon gets annoying by taking things out of your cart before you finish checking out but they are the best for finding things you can't get in the stores.

    Wish I had something better to offer. :ohwell:
