But that explanation is actually misleading. I've had items that I ordered previously from Amazon suddenly turn into add-ons at the same or even slightly higher prices.

Amazon may well have decided to create the add-on program in lieu of removing them, but "wouldn't even exist" isn't the entire truth, as it doesn't acknowledge the fact that the items did exist before.

Sounds like they were selling them at a loss and decided to either move them into the add-on program, or remove them from the site all-together. Which is is better?
