Nowhere near "109" in Europe.

One dubious seller with £ 105 ( ~ € 120 ), but the larger retailers sell this at € 135-140.
Even with VAT of 21%, it should be only € 120, not 140 !

NAND prices fluctuate quite a bit at the moment, right now it is 119 USD in the WD store and indeed when you look around a bit, roughly 120~130 EUR at some places.

I don't know where, but not in our country for sure !

I'm actually interested in getting a decently fast NVME drive, as currently I have an old Samsung 850 (SATA), 500 GB, and today's games are eating it up instantly... I can basically keep 4-5 games max on it until I'm completely out of space.
Perhaps it will drop a bit soon...

But you have the Sandisk equivalence for less money... and for the WD price you have the upper version from Sandisk too (even the software is the same)
