Customer: Do you have Item X?
Shopkeeper: Yeah. It goes for 50 bob
Customer: You don't have the one for 55 bob

I have been following the Asus Zenphone 2 story (64GB storage, 4GB RAM, Intel Atom, etc etc) and going for less than 300 USD. That is how much the phones should cost. The rest is just the name and minor cosmetics

+1 @ Tony.

If people are willing to buy my phone at 100k and I make it at 10k I'll sell at 100 :)
Then they get tired and I say wohoo, price reduction 97k! :) :)

The price of a commodity/service bears only some loose relation to the cost of production and the like. It's determined more by how much the market is willing to pay for it. Remember the 32/= per minute call charges a few years back, and the subsequent massive drops in calling rates?
