The original iPad mini 2 with cellular was $529 when introduced ten years ago, not $300. The current iPad mini with cellular was $649 when introduced one and a half years ago. Both of those numbers are the actual US Dollar prices for both products. Your pricing information is not correct.

$349, plus tax of 30.36, on April 7, 2015.

Still have the invoice.

I have a Jan 7, 2015 receipt from Apple for a 16GB Wifi only iPad mini for $300, and that was for the first version of iPad mini.

Perhaps you bought it with a special promotional price.

It was probably closing out -- It was towards its end of active life.
