Cheated out of $15 on incense?

I use incense to freshen my house and burn the smells often. I ordered a large amount of incense from a seller I always order from. The SAME DAY, I found the incense for (overall, considering the amount I ordered) for $15 less. Should I contact the original seller, with whom I have a good relationship with, and let her know about my frustration?

The incense on eBay and from the seller's website were sold by the same person, not a different seller, so she has no excuse for not letting me know she had changed the price other than just wanting to overcharge me.

    Thank you, you are right. I should have checked the best price elsewhere, I just trusted her very well and expected her to automatically give me the the best price. I have contacted her, and we'll see what happens. If she doesn't refund me/give me an extra pack of incense, I'll just let her know I'm going to be going with the eBay seller from now on. I always buy $50 more from her, so she will probably want my business, so I hope she will work with me. Thanks again. Anyway, what's $15 between friends? She might have forgotten to just update the price on her official site to counteroffer the other seller.

    Frankly, if you have that good of a relationship with her, then you ought to have known the sales difference. Go ahead and make it known that you have seen the differences, and from now on make your purchases through the lower price. Or simply find another seller.
