I'll go bold and go $1738.
"If any show, forget sports, Price is Right, [the audience is] the star of the show. Somebody... coming on down and losing their minds, and ... crying, that's the show. The show isn't me, the show isn't necessarily [a] can of soup, how much that is, it's watching people go bananas, and there's going to be some of that missing."

$1,001!



*ding*

Are you going to buy tpir04 a beer for that?

*laughter*

Anyway, the actual retail price of the home theater and speakers is... $2,080!



*bell sequence, 1972 Walking*

TPIRfan#9821, you are the winner! You get to join me onstage. Watch your step, that floor there is moving. That's why we call that the turntable. It's showing all of us the first pricing game...



You may know this better as the Bonus Game but the board it having a little case of amnesia. It doesn't know what it's called! In a moment, I'm going to show you four prizes. The more you know about them, the better chance you have of winning this!

George: An excursion in the Galapagos Islands!



You and a guest will fly round trip coach to Quito, Ecuador. From there, you will embark on a five-day Galapagos Cruise courtesy of Adventure Life where you can experience all the flora and fauna of these islands of biodiversity. Also enjoy swimming and snorkeling with wildlife in the crystalline waters of the Pacific. A great prize worth $8,648!

Me: Wouldn't you love to go there, TPIRfan#9821? That sounds like the trip of a lifetime. To get there, you need to win yourself some prizes. We start all the way at the top...



...with a life vest. George?



George: This O'Neill men's life vest fits comfortably and will keep you safe when you're doing all your favorite aquatic activities.

Me: Now, you see that $70 price up top? Believe it or not, that price is wrong. To win the life vest and a chance at that trip, you need to tell me whether the correct price is higher or lower. What do you say, TPIRfan#9821?

(Side note: JayC's bid was late but I let it slide since it did not affect the outcome.)

Well it turns out 1 upping tpir04 didn't work out anyway. If I get on stage I'll buy everyone in the row a beer!

Good luck TPIRfan#9821!

Pfft... that's actually a tough call. I'll go lower.

JayC, what if one of the people in the row doesn't drink? What are you going to buy them?

That should apply to the host, too!

You say lower on the life vest and you are...



*buzzer*

Incorrect. We have to slide this back into oblivion.



That doesn't mean you can't try again. We'll move on forward with prize number two.



It's a pair of binoculars. Listen to George.



George: Explore the world beyond with this pair of Bushnell Legend L-Series binoculars. They measure 10 x 42 millimeter and allow a 340-feet field of view.

Me: As before, $250 is wrong. Is the retail price higher or lower than that, TPIRfan#9821?

To be clear, I didn't specify what kind of beer. They do make hard root beers, though. The more you know! Wait, wrong network.

Lower...



*buzzer*

Well, we're off to a fascinating start. 0 for 2 so far...



Let's see if we can at least get you the bottom two. Your next guess is for...



Some goggles. What can you say about them, George?



George: This pair of Speedo swimming goggles will give you a precision feel so you can see better in the pool or any body of water.

Me: How do you feel about $35?

I'll go higher.

I swear, if this setup is high-high-low-high, I am going to just wipeout.
