While visiting the Key West Light last month, I noticed that the gift shop had the G.L.O.W. Edition of Key West Light for sale for $79.95. This wasn't just on a sign, they had the blue boxes with price stickers on them. The price seemed high for an open edition, so I checked at the HL Website when I got home.

Harbour Lights lists the price as $65.00. So I was wondering, has anyone else encountered pricing over list for a current item? If so was it at a lighthouse? Does anyone know if there's a policy or program for charging a premium at a light house gift shop, with the extra to go for preservation or other specific purposes?

Since I didn't know the "official" price for certain when I was there, I didn't ask at the gift shop. But I'm curious if this is typical, if it was an error, or what?

I didn't buy one; as I said, I was just wondering.

This post probably belongs in another forum - I'm just not sure which one.
