maybe 5 years ago I looked at nissan parts website for some sr20 related transmission hardwares... single snap rings of various thicknesses to set some clearance inside the 5-speed.

I came back a couple days later to buy them and the price changed from $0.28~ ranges to $5+ each item.

I would say there is definitely some third party software keeping track of viewed items on their websites, and people who routinely update the prices to reflect interest and supply/demand type of information. Take that however you like (is it thievery to jack up the price of something once you notice there is some interest? Or was their price sample so far out of date that it required updating to reflect current costs of storage space, or whatever, and nobody noticed until it came up on their screen as a potential near future purchase)
