Contour went out of business late last year and closed shop. An investment group that was involved with the company before bought up what was left and is supposedly going to be releasing new products in the near future here, but most of what you're going to find is old stock, which is why the prices have gone up.

(I have a V1 Roam that I love as well. The form factor is just so much better than a GoPro for a lot of things).
