Okay.

FYI, the “Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad” (MQ052LL/A) was introduced in June 2017 and is still being manufactured and sold by Apple.

So as of both the print date on that tag and this comment, it has not yet been discontinued.

(There actually was a Space Gray (read: black) variant of the same model that was discontinued back in 2021)

This could still be a UMRP situation, then. Most of our UMRP or at least MAP agreements have a stipulation where we're allowed to round the price up or down some small amount, typically up to 49 cents, in order to make the final figure a round dollar amount or make the pennies the same as the other items in our catalog (XXX.99, XXX.97, XXX.49, etc.) ostensibly for aesthetic purposes. This would also cover your system making all clearance items end in 96 cents or whatever the hell.

This is surely a case of corporate stupidity, but whether or not it's Apple's stupidity or Best Buy's stupidity I couldn't tell you. Possibly both!
