The value story
It has been discounted 16 times in the 1 year tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 40 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today's $6.74 at 55 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 48 percent on value. It is pricier than 78 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 61 percent. GYLT ($19.99, scores 63) outscores it, and so does The Midnight Walk ($29.99, scores 51). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
