I think it is an A/B test, as you described, based on this part:
> We created a secret landing page. The product and design were identical. The only difference? One was labeled “Made in Asia” and priced at $129. The other, “Made in the USA,” at $239.
It's odd that they changed the text AND nearly doubled the price. They seem to attribute the conversion rate dropping to the text change, though.
