Apple can afford to charge proportionally more for the 64/128GB models, because they really have no competitors.
I was able to get two 1st gen minis last Black Friday for $200 each from Best Buy after subtracting the free $100 gift cards they came with. I then converted the Best Buy gift cards into Amazon gift cards. Pretty good deal for an Apple product.
