      If high-end demand is normal, no such bottleneck exists. Selling at a middling price gets middling+ sales, for more net profit.

      What makes you think the low-end market would be elastic enough to accept a middling price? (The industry clearly doubts that.)

      Why do you think the high-end demand is inelastic in price? Where's this discontinuity in the demand curve coming from?

      Is it so hard to imagine a sharp discontinuity in the demand curve between affluent tech early-adopters and an easily-satisfied mass market?

      "Early adopters" again, meaning they will pay for being early, not for Veblen signalling. Hence, auctions, not vandalism.

      Auctioning what? I'm not clear if you think they should be running multiple production lines (which they're saving on currently).

      They run one production line. The first batch - necessarily limited in size - is auctioned off. Low supply == high price.

      That would result in massive under-production, and sacrifice of the low-end market to a business competitor.

      What? No. I'm not suggesting they produce less, only that they market what they produce differently depending on when it's produced.

      Might be a PR issue? Possible perception that such naked price-maximization would look icky while a demand glut (queue) serves as an advert.
