The value story
It has been discounted 20 times in the 5 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 50 percent, about 12 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
It is pricier than 84 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 87 percent. Deliver Us The Moon ($24.99, scores 53) outscores it, and so does Fobia - St. Dinfna Hotel ($29.99, scores 41). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
