For one thing there is no 8GB Nexus 5. For another, anyone following Google's Nexus product lines knew that the $199 and $249 price points were obviously clearance prices to move the last bit of inventory out of the pipeline and make way for the Nexus 5.

It's silly you'd even argue this considering there is no other phone you can buy for $350 that is anywhere near as capable as the Nexus 5. It is competing with phones with an MSRP of over $500.

Let's compare what you're telling me with what I wrote:

> For one thing there is no 8GB Nexus 5.

"you'll notice that the 8GB 5 is difficult to purchase"

You seem to be agreeing with me.

> anyone following Google's Nexus product lines knew that the $199 and $249 price points were obviously clearance prices to move the last bit of inventory out of the pipeline

"I tend to agree that the 4s were priced to move, so it's not a great comparison"

It's very difficult to persuade someone that their views are faulty by only telling them things they've already stated themselves. Where are you trying to go with this?
