65 for the lager model iirc.
45 for the front cover.
Should have worked harder at school

The money is no issue, whatsoever.
I just don't like being taken for a mug.
'Precision engineered' are you joking?
It's just a rubbery plastic case!
I've got both the front and back covers, and I do feel that I was taken for a mug. Even the guy at the Apple Store realized just how overpriced it was.

THIS is why Apple is the richest company on the planet.
You need to buy in Australia A$229 for the keyboard/case, A$1599 (256) for the 9.7, 12.9 A$1949 IPP and A$165 for the pencil. OUCH!
Yeah it's expensive but it's still good quality. Other 3rd party cases aren't great. Still it will last me a while and I don't need replace it.
You don't have to buy it, expensive accessories for Apple products are nothing new. Granted with each passing year they seem to give you less product for more money. Nothing really new there either.
Just vote with your wallet, don't buy it, buy a third party one. There's no denying the quality of the Apple ones. But there are/will be some easily as good as the Apple ones, some even better, for a lot less money. They just won't have a nice Apple logo embossed on them.

I do wonder how they end up charging more for the front and back silicone case than they do the pencil, surely that must cost more to produce?!
Well I ordered the front & back in Midnight Blue.
Don't get jealous but both items will be costing me £14, instead of £94!
I was offered an £80 rebate as a goodwill gesture, after receiving 2 of the large iPad Pros with dead pixels.
Only just got around to using it.
See ... I'm no mug ;-)

I'm also perplexed by the fact that the simple, plastic rear shell is more expensive than the Smart Cover?
which ipad pro size was this? the 9.7 or the 12.9? Had to use my retail discount perk to reduce mine to £49 today and i still feel it won't protect the 9.7's portruding camera . I'm going to sell it once griffin introduce their survivor cases which are far better value in terms of protection than apple's cases
Huh? So isn't the rebate just like cash? And you still spent it on the Apple case and cover despite thinking it was overpriced. Interesting.
I bought the iPad Pro 12.9 and got the Smart Keyboard really cheap but there is no protection for the rear of the tablet
I see they make the apple silicon case but $70 is crazy
Do they have a case that like the apple silicon cover works with the apple Smart Keyboard
If not I'll just have to get a hard sleeve or carry case/bag
But was hoping for a cover that protects the rear
Thanks for any info
$70 for a silicon cover for the rear of a tablet just crazy
But apple will always get someone pay it

I assume their stats show that more folks likely to worry about the back of the device, at least for IPads.
Shame they don't make the smart case for the Pro, but no question that is fully intentional and they will use the smart connector as the excuse. The Smart case for the Air 2 is nice but overpriced,but still cheaper than the back and front covers purchased separately.
