May be worth asking or checking if they sell for less during the group buy through R2R here. Or if they go on sale for black friday. Last weekend everything on BRS website was 10% off, it's possible they discount those as well. Never looked into it so I don't have a definitive answer for you.
And you're correct about the pricing, they don't go on sale but there may be deals to be had as mentioned above. Good luck I hope you do find one for less.
I wrote and asked if the Neptune Apex was included in the 10% off sale last weekend being that it was a "Site Wide" sale and I was told:

Hey there,
Thanks for getting in touch with us in regards to this sale. This sale excludes some companies that have asked us not to discount their items anymore then we have them. One of those companies is Neptune who makes the Apex. Please let me know if there is anything else that we can assist with. Thanks!
I am out of the office Tuesday - Thursday, for urgent issues on
these days, please call customer service at (763) 432 9691.

Please advise?
If the 10% off is site wide, why is the Apex Controller still full price?
I would like to order one.
As you can see I tried to no avail.
Waiting 7 months for a sale that mayor may not happen is unacceptable.
