I have seen this happen several times myself. And my friends have reported it too. Not every item will age well, but at least some do. So if I want something that I don't need soon, I always age it - just to see what will happen. Sometimes you get pleasantly surprised. The typical aging discount I see is 10% to 15%, sometimes 20%. Some items - the ones you see on every website for the exact same price - do not age. Probably some manufacturers "minimum price" agreement for those.

They'll drop on price on Amazon's wishlists as well, I've seen it a lot. It's just rare that the stuff on my wishlists drop low enough for me to bite and most of it's just stuff I'd like to have if it ever gets cheap enough.
