: We have MIXED feelings about this. On ONE HAND - we like getting a deal. But on the OTHER hand . . . it just AIN'T RIGHT to sell the White family for almost TWICE the price as the Black family!!!
Thats because Amazon has sellers as third parties so you are going find items priced differently depending on the seller-like ebay. Even if that were not the case and it were from the same seller, may be the black family sells slower thus need for mark down. In either case so the hell what. Yall really need better researchers and writers. Hell, I'll send in my resume...
Think along these lines.... African-Americans make up roughly 12% of the population. It's only common sense that the white family will sell out faster. More ppl will purchase the white family; Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, and so forth... Because it sells well there is no need to cut pricing to entice buyers... the African-American family will not sell as much so in turn they reduce the cost hoping the product will sell more. It's not racist, hell they're just trying to sell some darn dollhouses... I'd slash the price too if I was stuck with some *** nobody was buying! twitter/darlin.nikki77 ;-)
There's no fcuking pleasing some of us at times...
Yeah, it's cheaper but I for one, appreciate the price break, for whatever reason.
It's probably due to a supply and demand situation
If this upsets you, then try adopting an African American child, as the cost is cheaper for African American children than it is for Caucasion children
Probably also due to a supply and demand situation
Perhaps WE (black people) need to increase our demand in both areas, to ensure their value is maintained
Oh well considering many of these whites are adopting our black babies ... im sure there talc powder looking asse's will qualify for the special offer ... im sure when it arrives .... the cracka will say .......... YES IM WINNING ! ................ house nicca's stop defending yer former slave massa ..... after all he makes the *** toys in his factory .... and don't give a fook ! .... aslong as his cash register is ringing LOUD !
It's the merchant that priced the caucasian house higher...not Amazon. If you look on the right side of the page (under "More Buying Choices) the African-American dollhouse is being sold by a third party for $77.95. That amount is way more than what's being offered for the Caucasian one.

a little bit of research MTO ***. There are a few my first dollhouse (african american family) on amazon for $60+ if you bothered to look. also a white one for 40+. Its enough REAL racism in society you dont need to make *** up to get hits. Thats just irresponsible. stick to completely making up things about celebrities.
give me a f_ing break. white ppl been doing this to us for years so if they suddenly develop a conscience to reverse it, who the heck cares. hell, thye send the stale food to blk neighborhoods and charge more and the fresher food goes to white neighborhood markets for less, so stop b@tching MTO. u r so *** conditioned to b treated like a second class citizen that when the table is reverse u calling foul. u think a white family or paper would say thats wrong? heck no, they would prob wonder y its not double. now i know 2 wrongs dont make a right, but sometimes ppl must learn how it feels to treat a group of ppl differently in order to change.
