Garmin had the standard for $350, but this is for the solar version

Good price, site seems to be legit. I Question the benefit of "solar" gps. Seems to be an expensive gimmick, unless you really need to squeeze a few extra minutes out of your gps.
Minutes if you're in 100% sunlight.

Would rather have $50 off the basic one. Solar is such a gimmick on these things. Thicker, heavier device, dimmer screen, all to add 5 minutes to battery on a 3 hour ride.

Because they're already missing their sales forecast.

Like I said. Minutes.
22% improvement is significant, although my Wahoo Roam is good for 8 hours or so without solar.

A lot of people question the solar aspect of the units.
You either ride enough that getting 40 minutes out of 3 hours means something or you don't ride that much and you probably don't need this high end of a unit with or without solar.

The solar charging is probably more useful for folks who are bikepacking/camping, and can leave the device sitting to charge when they arrive at destination/waypoints.
