Change in price

Hi all,

1) Change in price
2) Change of price
Are those two similar or different in meaning and how?

Thanks in advance,

They have the same meaning, especially with price . In general, however, a change of is a greater change than a change in . To me, a change of plan(s) suggests that the entire plan has been changed, that is, one plan has been substituted for another; whereas a change in plan(s) suggests that a small change in one item (or in only a small number of items) within the plan has occurred.
