Wtf? 600 for mobo and ssd.
This crap marketing website used to be about finding good deals. Now its a commission based gouge fest.
I think You are correct, used to be 45, 55, 65% and more off MSRP deals. Now so many 20, 25 and 30% offs and some posting are getting big commissions. Some, I guess have forgot most retail prices are 60, 65 and 70%, (or more), markups on MSRP. Not like it used to be 5 or 6 years ago for sure.

Well, given that the SSD retails for $400 and the motherboard is currently $600 on Asus's site, and you include the combo $100 off, you're effectively getting over 50% off retail.

What did all the items retail for 1 year ago? Most SSD & Memory is over priced as We all know. Not trying to flame anyone, just saying some deals posted are not good deals anymore, some are commission grabbers. Which I understand people have to make a living.

The motherboard was $490 or so in deals last year, according to deal history-- it's a premium motherboard. (The 2 RAM slots thing is annoying, though.) It had a deal for $451 in April by itself.
The SSD deal price was down to about $114 last year.
So you're paying retail on the motherboard with a free SSD, as long as you also buy a CPU (pair with a 270k Plus and you get last year's 285k performance for much less money) or some other combo-eligible part if you've got a CPU already.
The thing about "what did it cost last year", though, is that last year's prices aren't coming back as long as:
Supply hasn't caught up with demand, which won't be true as long as datacenters continue to be built
Tariffs are still in place, which isn't likely to change in the short term
So you won't see that $114 for a 2TB SSD anytime soon, let alone from a respectable brand. If you need to build anything anytime soon, this is a very good deal.

Yes, You are correct on prices, good chance We can't buy memory or ssd's at a working mans price thru 2027, really to bad. It has hurt the DIY people hard, I see it everyday.

Hey man, next time you use your time machine can you pick up a few things for me? I'll make it worth your while.

This is a high end motherboard with features such as tool-less installation of components, several 10gig usb and thunderbolt 4 ports, 5gig Ethernet, WiFi 7, 4+2 m.2 slots, higher quality components, etc. Relative to how expensive everything else is this isn't a bad price on its own, and a free 2TB m.2 drive makes it a steal in this market.That said, Newegg has gone downhill and it's a shame.
