The best prices on Apple stuff, with the exception of their refurbished store... is almost always from other retailers.

Except only the ugly add taupe case is that cheap.

All the finewoven cases are pretty ugly and odd…

I doubt fine woven cases will last long in their current form... I seen some in an Apple Store and damn they are rough.

Im sure they can find a better solution to have a compromise for environmentally friendly materials and longevity/quality/appearance.

Unless you like the used/worn aesthetic.

They can’t even give those FineWoven cases away…lol

USA only, no Canadian love from Amazon.

I think they would struggle to pay people to take them. I'm really surprised they got through Apples testing... unless they just thought people would accept this.

Ive noticed this on a few of their accessories too... the white plastics scratch up like crazy (see AirPods charge cases etc).

There are much better plastic finishes they could use.

Apple probably wants to try to preserve its image by avoiding too much "manufacturer discounting" which can cheapen a brand. They leave that to the retailers where discounts are more common/expected in general.

Actually, the discounts on most of the FineWoven cases shown above are not as much as discounts were on leather cases a year ago.

Last year, iPhone 14, Plus, Pro and Pro Max leather cases were discounted from $59.00 to $44.99.
The 15 Plus, Pro and Pro Max FineWoven cases here are discounted from $59.00 to $47.99.

Yeah but the taupe is the worst.

Apple have never discounted products in store... they give away vouchers and have student pricing... but nothing more.

I don't think certain discounts 'cheapen' a brand. I think a decent thing they could do is temporally lower a devices price when an update is imminent. Although the device is fine, when a consumer buys a device at full price and the update is available the next day... that can hit customer loyalty more than cheapening the brand.

Other companies have discounts.. and Ive never thought that would cheapen their brand.

But I think butterfly keyboards and the like certainly 'damage' the brand, absolutely.

Over the years they have but it's rare. For example, the original iPhone was discounted $200 less than three months after launch. Apple also routinely lowers retail prices of previous generation models which could be considered a discount but, again, traditional sales and discounts are still rare. Gift cards and/or limited time trade-in bonuses is the approach Apple typically takes for "shopping events" like Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

Too much discounting can often be viewed as "cheapening" a consumer goods brand especially when that brand is considered premium, luxury, upscale, etc.

Good pricing for MagSafe Duo charger and some iPhone cases

I’d say fiasco such as butterfly keyboards, overheating iPhones, dodgy screen coverings, finewoven cases, and power cables without appropriate strain relief “cheapen” a supposedly luxury brand more than discounts.

I’d not call apple a luxury brand however, they are more a premium brand. I say this because their designs are very high quality but not luxurious. Luxury is great comfort or elegance. Many of their devices are not great comfort and devices like their mice are the opposite of elegance.

Very high build quality, but definitely not luxurious.
