https://amzn.to/47AJmOg its only gen 3 speeds but still something like this cost an arm and a leg when i bought one for my desktop. And apparently gen 3 is better for battery life anyway.

I am wondering why Framework is overcharging massively for SSD's (and RAM) when configuring laptops on their site?

For example they are asking £229 for a WD SN770 2TB SSD when you can buy it separately for £85 on Amazon!

They ordered these much earlier and in a limited quantity, before manufacturers dropped prices

Yeah part of what Framework wants to do is keep stable prices. That means overcharge for volatile components.
