I mean, that's capitalism, right? The manufacturers see that their product is still selling at a 300% markup, why would they bring the price back down when they can just make more profit if/when costs for them come back down? Sure they might drop it a little to make it "look" like a good deal. Just like GPUs. They went from being $600 for high end, to being $2000. Then when they announced that the next Gen was "only" going to be $1200 everybody was like "Wow! What a great deal!"

I hate this timeline. They just keep figuring out new ways to squeeze money out of me and ruining my hobbies.
