Sometimes there is a minimum advertised price that manufacturers will allow vendors to sell at publicly, and the price in cart is a way that vendors get around it. If that's what's happening here, OP might be getting a really good price. I don't think this is a sinister plot by AMZN.

If you assume everything's a sinister plot by Amazon, you'll be right most of the time.
