Was there a major price hike recently?

I just noticed that since I bought my Respironics A-Flex machine (and OptiLife Mask) in December, there has been a big jump in the prices at several online CPAP shops... Did I miss something? I know Philips bought Respironics recently, do you think they ordered a price hike for online sellers or else?

Price hike doesn't do justice. Think Minimum Advertised Price (MAP).

A business operational change for Respironics and F&P, targeting online sales.

Regards,
Bill
