    when merchants raise their prices on Amazon, they are required to raise their prices everywhere else, even on their own direct-sales stores.

    Not exactly true. If you see the price for an item, this means it is the lowest retail price.

    If you see “see options”, that means a seller can sell it to you, but they are selling in cheaper somewhere else.
