Easy. They always sell the amount they produce. However only when they lower the price. Nobody with a sane mind pays 150 € for 8GB of RAM.
However what if they already sold everything and even future products to someone and have the money already? Well now you have the same demand but no supply. Of course demand falls with increasing prices, but your supply is so limited that you want to reach the sweet spot where someone still pays that much for it and where you still sell everything you have left.
Let's say I harvest 100 apples a year and my neighbours buy 70 each year I basically only charge as much as it costs me to harvest them so I have a little winnings. Because if not they will buy from someone else.
But now someone buys all the apples he can get. Now I sold 98 apples and my neighbours still want to buy 70. Well at some price they will only want to buy 2.so I charge 500 per apple, because I am greedy.
