ToyAddict makes a lot of good points, so I won't get into much.
But this:

That doesn't dound terribly unreasonable to me, honestly.

That sounds like a screw up somewhere, if it's marked on the shelf as one thing,a nd rings up the other. Either they put the wrong price on the shelves (Which then this *is* an unreasonable price, IMO), or it was in the system wrong. Either way, you should get the shelf price.

I've *never* seen or even heard of either of these items being marked or intended at that lower price. I did briefly see the sewer set on sale for $109. Maybe that's what you saw for that.
At a loss for Prime, though.
