Any chance of more details on "where" did You buy it for 300EUR? Looking at Google Shopping results (location:Germany) right now and there seems to be no chance of getting it below ~450EUR, more like 500+EUR (when shipping is included). Portability is nice, but I'm finding it hard to imagine a scenario where the small width/height would be the killer feature. For that kind of price I think there are much nicer options (ebay/used Thinkpad X for durability, or MS Surface for comparable portability). It's not quite as small, but still in the realm of "fits in my usual papers / notes folder" kind of portable. And with a reasonable CPU to boot...

Probably was before the current euro crash. Euro went from stablish 1.20 USD to parity the past few months

  Looking at Amazon.de prices with Keepa it seems that the price has gradually been upped from 450€ in March to 600€ now in August. So they're just price gouging it for whatever reason, probably more demand than they can produce with China still presumably on lockdown. Checking aliexpress pricing history it seems to have gone for as low as 320€ before covid hit. So assuming he got one of those checkout coupons he could've saved another 20€ easily, making it a flat 300€ as stated. This thing has been on the market for quite a while.

    Not price gouging. Compensating for euro losing purchasing power. This is a forex problem
