Not really, if you check HD website that's what they're selling them for so I guess that's what dewalt assigned MSRN price to it:
https://www.homedepot.com/p/DEWAL.../202550894 Lowe's claims the same although they're on 67% sale @$9.99 there.
Not that I would pay that much for non SDS bits but it's not just click and bait IMO.

Not sure how they're "rapid load" since that usually applies to 1/4" hex end (these looks like have round with 3 flats end), but these are good bits for concrete and brick and at this price worth it.

Pretty sure the rapid load is referring to a hammer drill. Not a screw driver or impact driver.

They drill way better than the bits included with masonry screws. I used them to anchor that wood rack deal into my poured concrete foundation.

NO IT DOESN'T, look up "dewalt rapid load" online and see what comes up, unless there's a new chuck that lets you load round with 3 flats quick (and no I'm not talking about regular chuck that you tighten while spinning because then all bits are quick load basically).
Hammer drill most popular chucks are SDS Plus, SDS Max, spline and few others but don't remember any of them called rapid load. If you look up by part number for other sellers like HD and Amazon, etc it doesn't mention quick load ANYWHERE for this set. I simply pointed out that ACE screwed up by putting that in the title, maybe they meant "rock carbide" but that's not even remotely the same meaning.

Seems like a good price but after switching to sds for masonry work I can't ever imagine going back. Drilling a hole in concrete is 10 minutes or more vs. a few seconds for non-sds and sds respectively.

Why does the listing suggest that this is normally (or originally) $29.99? That's ridiculous and that sort of misleading discount click-bait lie is getting really old. It's unethical and it also really undermines my confidence in Slickdeals.

What don't you like about it? Your statement is quite limited.

You think this would work for drilling holes in ceramic pots? (asking all peeps)

Unglazed maybe, glazed doubtful. You would do better with the pointed tip ones that are made for drilling tile.

It will depend on which type of tile it is. If it's cheap soft clay then possibly but if it's porcelain and good quality then don't waste your time unless you want to end up with broken tile. Not the easiest to center but ones that handle most tiles including low-medium thickness porcelain are diamond bits with water container to cool them down periodically like this one:

Thanks, I'm pretty clueless on drill bits. I think I found some that I'd like; drill bits for ceramic [amazon.com]

I agree SDS is for the pros tho. Average diy guy aint gonna invest in SDS.

I have these and they work great for what they are intended for, small holes. I have an sds max also, but lugging that thing out every time I need to put a 1/4" hole into a block wall would be crazy overkill. As far as drilling into tile - simply put no. These are not tile bits, you have to use ones specifically for tile drilling. Most tile bits (maybe all?) Have diamond on the tips, make sure you use water with those as they will dull in literally one second if you don't use water. If you are trying to drill in your shower on the wall, try a tiny masonry bit and see if you can make it into the grout line. If you need to drill into the tile you have to use a tile bit and you can use a squirt bottle with water spraying pretty much constantly directly onto the tip of the bit.
