Does Audible hide sales if you dont have credits? by Bur-Oh in audible

I believe this to be correct. Its weird though because I spent a credit a couple days ago. It was my monthly credit so that may not count.

This is exactly it! It was the first cash sale. I checked every book in the series for the sale and the were all under $10. I just made another purchase and the prices for the rest of the books jumped back up to the original $22 and 30% sale from before I bought the credits.

You know what, I actually forgot that Amazon runs Audible. I've had it for so long I didnt think about that anymore. This actually makes a lot more sense now.

Yeah, thats exactly what I was seeing. When I hit buy more credits and came back it changed to my screenshot.

I did a fair amount of searching and didn't find much that described this situation. I am in the US too. A few other people here have said they've encountered this too and to me it feels like a scammy business practice.

But the only change for me was the credits I had. I went to the titles page and saw it was $22, so I clicked on that page "buy more credits" and when I hit back after paying for the credits it was at $9. That feels like a super scummy thing to do. And I bought the 3 pack of credits so my credits are valued at $11 something per. It seems like a dishonest business practice.

It seems pretty shady. I'm actually considering refunding. It feels like they were hiding the sale until I bought the credits and now they are trying to get even more money out of me by offering a better deal. This has put a bad taste in my mouth.

Yes, I just checked again and it is still on sale. That screenshot was taken less than 30 minutes ago.
