What they're saying is true - about the higher prices. It's for a very practical reason; Apple sells merchandise with clout, if they sold them for bargain prices every dog and their flea would have the newest Apple toy... and how special would it be then?
They need to maintain a specific market share to keep their "clout" level and to do so they adjust their prices.
