The dells, hps and lenovos of the world can't sell it, so it's not in retail, so typical people won't really have access to it. Same deal with all the phone manufacturers and then basically any electronic device with NAND.
It can still provide pressure to lower price but it inhibits the effects locally quite a bit. It's like how super cheap cars can be imported to latin american countries but if you want anything remotely similar in the US the costs to get it here make it pointless and thus no cheap cars exist here brand new (more or less.)
