if in the end Scorpion and Neo get similar graphical capacity (as with Ps4-X1) then yes, both will have the same price. But, to our knowledge, the Scorpion is much stronger than the NEO. So I find it hard to believe that the price of them will be the same ... Alson $399 for a machine whit a 6 Tflops GPU , rumored to carry 12 GB ddr5 and a new CPU, in my view, is a little unreal... perhaps $450 take a look at this, this dude can explain much better:

It's not unreasonable to expect that Microsoft would eat into some of the cost in order to be more competitive. (Microsoft being the underdog in this race at the moment, they did this allot with the original Xbox.) They would like to keep the momentum going as they are winning news cycles at the moment.
12Gb ddr5 doesn't exist. I think you mean GDDR5? Either way, 12Gb wouldn't work to well, Scorpio and Neo aren't using a 384bit memory bus. (I.E. 2Gb per 64bit channel.) Or doubled memory amounts on one channel like nVidia has historically done. (Comes with performance implications.)
Please don't use Tflops as some kind of way to gauge performance. A GPU with less Teraflops can beat one that has more Teraflops, it's about as usefull as Mhz for CPU's.

yes, GDDR5, just a typo, i forgot the "G".
Abbout the 12 GB GDDR 5 on scorpion, well, i'm just going for the rumor and analysis from Digital foundry. (you can see in the link i posted)
I tottaly agree, the floating-point performace isn't enough to judge a gpu. Clock speed, Memory bus, TMU, memory bandwith, etc. I just talked like that to simplify, I admit that this is wrong, but simplifies = P. ( again, look at the link in digital foundry, they explain things very well no metter if you are beginner or expert. )
