eScooters are an up & coming market. Supply & Demand will go wild. The Gotrax GXL has been listed on Amazon from $399 to $535, over the last 6 months according to camelcamelcamel. It's currently the cheapest it's been. As they gain more popularity and more people show interest and buy them, more people are willing to build a business around them (be it manufacturing, distribution, retail, etc). More demand causes more supply. More supply typically means lower prices in the long run. etc.
However, eScooters also fall under "high tech" heading (if you ask me). So waiting will ALWAYS have something newer/better/faster/cheaper coming out. But the premium units are probably always going to be at a premium price point.
So I'd recommend: You decide if it'll bring you value now, or you can afford to wait till later.
This one!! I love it
Could be a bit soon, though some companies have already started their black friday sales, like the popular Gotrax electric scooter that is on sale already for $399.
