That's why I stopped buying Noctua coolers after 2014 since they've been constantly raising their prices over the years after getting too big for their own britches when there are other CPU cooler manufacturers out there whose products offer comparable performance as their offerings, but at a fraction of the price.

I both agree with the statement and yet have an NH-D15 and three more A14s in my system somehow...

This is both a good deal and a bad deal. It's good because Noctua make genuinely great stuff and are rarely on double digit sale. But bad, because you can get a cooler and 5 cases fans from other companies for the same price and just run the fans slower and be just as quiet or more so.

While technically true, they are just inferior products too. I put a cheap thermaltake air cooler in a young kids pc as a replacement to his broken water cooler and I had to get two replacements before the backplate didn't come broken out of the box or after install snapping off the board since it's made of plastic versus metal like noctua. Plus noctua customer service has always treated me well. Years later I asked for them to send me an intel mounting kit and they sent it free of charge no questions asked. You can't beat that kind of service

The Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 is $33 right now, and as far as I know, doesn't use plastic for mounting. Also you can buy two of them so you have a backup, and it would still be cheaper than this.

Niche question, but does anyone know if ordering from Woot somehow disqualifies from getting a 1366/775 kit from Noctua?

It's your prerogative regarding what cooler you decide to use regardless of its cost. However, the purpose of my statement was meant put a spotlight on how egregious the price increases Noctua has been implementing over the past few years, a cost I'm unwilling to bear.
