This is totally be expected. The first Pioneer DVD-R burners targeted to consumers were about an $900 MSRP (other commercial versions were released earlier in the $2k to $4k range).

This is a constant and it is built into their business model. It allows the manufacturer to cash in on everyone on the upper-end of the demand curve (see your Econ 101 text book) and slowly work down the curve (cashing in on everyone else along the way) until the market hits an optimum efficiency (like how you can get a DVD+/-/DL burner for $40).
