This is often the case with fashion and/or sports items, the more popular colour combinations costing more.

Running shoes for instance: when I was last buying a pair of trail trainers the brightly coloured version of the shoe I currently prefer was being offered considerably cheaper than the all-black-except-high-vis-strips version. This was from the same sellers too, it wasn't due to the listing offering items from multiple outlets as is sometimes the case.

I would have preferred the darker version but I'm perfectly happy not to care about colour to save a bit of cash to spend on something else, but if I had paid the extra, as someone buying a fashion item to match an overall look might well do, and not got that version anyway I'd be expecting a cost-free replacement.

I have commonly seen this among products where there is a color choice. Here's a specific example: https://www.amazon.com/Walkers-Game-Ear-Razor-Electronic/dp/...
