There's a website that sells higher than map price. Aren't they suppose to lower the price?

www.WoofersETC.com puts a little higher price on subwoofers/amplifiers. Thought I just give you a head up. I don't know if they're not aware of this map price or do they have the right to raise the price on their own? Funny, when I ordered one of the amp (low price) on that website and as soon as I got it, they all of suddenly shot up the price on the page. I was like, "whoa, what's going on?" lol.

Oohh, I didn't even know what MAP actually stands for. Thanks for informing me. Well, forget this thread, lol. You can lock this thread and move on.

Dealers can sell below MAP, they just can't advertise below MAP. If the idea was to restrict the sale price, it would be MSP, not MAP.

And, of course, dealers can sell above MAP... even on the internet.

Some prices have changed as well since that chart... but as far as amps; we are completely sold out of most models so they may have raised the price to allow their stock to last a bit longer until our new SCV line comes in.

But yes; as was mentioned MAP is simply the lowest advertisable price level -- and for internet sales; the lowest level period. Local dealers are authorized to cut deals for customers that walk in their stores.
