Being able to usually only find 16GB RAM models as BTO directly from Apple means they are basically never available on sale at all the 3rd party retailers

That makes the bump from 8gb to 16gb even more egregious

The gouging and greed from Apple is OFF the charts at this point

These deals are one of the reasons why Apple should not skimp with 8GB RAM on the mid- and high-tier configurations. Retailers rarely stock and discount customized configurations. To be fair, many Windows notebooks also start with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage (e.g., Microsoft), but they typically cost significantly less than Macs.

Not bad deals...unless 8/256 or 8/512 are too measly. (Which they are.)

Bah, a 16/512 for $1200 would have been sweet!

I wouldn't suggest anyone buy a.... 8GB RAM computer in 2023 going 2024.
Haven't you heard? Based on Apple's new math, 8GB = 16GB ('https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/8gb-ram-on-m3-macbook-pro-analogous-to-16gb-on-pcs-claims-apple.2410269/') ;)
