I can't remember it may have been only 32gb but otherwise same specs. Given how cheap flash is and the fact that the cost difference between a 32gb and a 64gb eMMC is about $2 I would not expect to pay any more.

Yes it was the 32gb one. It was $119.99. I brought a open box excellent condition one for $79.99. I was also looking to pick up the 64gb one. But I also think that price is to high. Maybe in the near future it will drop to $129.

Of course, chromebooks remain one of the few laptops where 17" screens do often command a premium (perhaps out of rarity?) so in this case you'd have to ask whether a CPU and RAM downgrade is acceptable while also paying a $60 premium over a directly comparable model. Alternatively, consider that the more premium 14" touch screen model packs touch screen functionality, an improved CPU, and greater RAM at the same price.
The price in this deal wouldn't have seemed so bad prior to the aggressive pricing chromebooks have reached in the past month. Otherwise, this particular model probably appeals to very few and asks for the buyer to accept too much at the given price point to be considered a particularly slick deal.
Good luck!
