Not sure about US pricing but been quite a drop in UK

£612 down to £529

That's not bad as a price drop
 
Drop was 100 USD.

Price drop here in Sweden was from 6995 SEK to 5595 SEK. That's 20%!!!
Due to the fact that SEK was on all-time low exchange rate around last update.

I don't understand how an upgrade from 2 to 8GB can amount to half of the computer's price though. 300 USD or 2730 SEK (that would be £250). I hope it's easy to DIY
