The 900 price I got from Veloverde looks legit since all their other bike prices are in line with MSRP so the Sun should be too.
I guess we will see whats what soon enough huh.

Hmm...
I ordered one about two months ago. My bike shop quoted me 600-ish. I got an email from them stating late April, then just last week they updated me that Sun has now said delivery in late May. If the bike comes in and they want $900 for it, I'm out. When I ordered the bike, I asked them if they wanted a deposit, and they said no, no biggie, we'll just get you one. I'd hate to stiff them and not take the bike, but if it comes in 50% higher than what I was told, I won't be picking it up.
Anyway, still holding out hope that the bike arrives in two weeks and is sub-$700. They've been good about keeping me in the loop, so we shall see. It will be disappointing if it's $900, because I passed on a sweet used Yuba Mundo deal due to my order on the Sun. If I missed the Mundo and the Sun is $900, I'll be kind of peeved.
