They do overcharge for the hardware. You can pick a product from the Apple store and then increase the specs from the default setup, and you will notice that they charge ridiculous amounts for a bit of extra RAM, much more than those chips cost, and it's the same with storage. It doesn't help that so much is soldered on and you can't upgrade easily at a later point, so you're pushed to increase the specs and spend much more than you otherwise would.
