Does that even still exist? ;)

Just the nature of "the market" that essentially -identical products are marketed to different buyer demographic profiles for wildly -varying prices.

The trick is to present demographic-targeted imagery that supports the desire to pay more.

As a sort of reversed example, no way will I be able to head out in a few to get in a spirited hill-training ride on this bicycle, right? Maybe depends on who's asking and who's telling?

Not New

Bikerumor.com wrote this thing up last month. Actually CC's price is low as the MSRP is $445.

P.T. Barmum was too conservative.
