Still, not cheap.

Not a bargain.
Just clearing the warehouse for iPad 5, and Mini with Retina screen.
Both of which will probably become the only units for sale.

I think you are correct, I suspect there will be a new ipad mini announced next month by Apple. With the sales on the mini and refurbished ones, I think they are clearing the old inventory out.

This is a pretty typical Apple move, to try and get rid of their old stock before the new thing is announced. Not that I think it's a bad business strategy (it's actually a pretty good one), I just don't think its a good public relations strategy. I personally own a few Apple products, but I still get a bit irked with how fast they churn out new generations of devices, which makes the ones we have seem old and useless.

Almost every company does this so how is it a bad public relations strategy?

People complain of too frequent updates, others complain not often enough to keep up with Android. They can't win either way. But my wife's iPad3 still works just fine.
