There’s still probably someone out there who’s like “Finally! I’ve been waiting for that to go on sale”
You’d be surprised how well “99” works compared to the whole number. It’s a marketing trick, which is why most items are listed as .99, .98, etc.
I always heard this for decades and still am not convinced the average human really thinks 199 is any different than 200. I don’t know a single person who doesn’t recognise it as a cheap uneffective trick
That’s not the point. Obviously everyone recognizes and knows this, but it still changes something about your impression subconsciously, even if you think it doesn’t affect you.
they evidently don’t want you to spend a penny in their establishment.

Printing that label cost more than the sale price difference. Gotta recoup the expense somewhere.
Or to compare to Amazon
Sale price $59.99 From $100 Price 2 days ago $49 From $59
WoW auction house.
Every in game auction house lol pretty much any item that hasn’t just been bought out and manipulated has the same entries.
2000 1999 1980 1950 1900 1899 1880 1500
I always avoid buying from the cheapskates who only lowered the price by 1 gold.
A penny saved is a penny earned.
You could earn 19999 pennies!
