I could, but I worry that it would drive down sales volume and reduce total profit. I've sent the product to several IT reviewers, and they all bring up the $300 price point as borderline too high, so I've been reluctant to increase it further.

That said, I've increased prices several times thinking it would drive down volume and it never does, so maybe I should just bump it up again. I just have this weird mental block about exceeding $300.

Anecdata: I found this device interesting when I first saw it announced. I kinda want one. I think I saw it at a $250 price point, and it was already out of my ballpark. If I was buying it for business use, it'd be justifiable at higher.

For personal use, you already priced me out, so who cares? For hobbyists outside of the Silicon Valley-tier of salary, you've already priced most home buyers out, I could spend $300 on TinyPilot, or I could spend $300 on an entirely new server.

That's interesting, thanks!

You could divide your product into hobbyist and enterprise product lines, and sell support plans for enterprise for some recurring revenue.

For example, sell hobbyists a 3d printed case (and a PoE hat?), and tell them Bring Your Own Pi. Sell 100% turnkey units to businesses.
