M.2 SSD prices sky rocketed?

About a week ago I was checking the price of a 120GB M.2 SSD and they were circa £25.

Now looking, they've almost doubled to £45. What gives?

I assume the £ falling against USD means more expensive to import, especially electronics equipment etc.

Wouldn't cause them to double in price though. Even when the factories in Taiwan got knocked out due to flooding the prices of disks only increased by about 10-20%.

£25 is very cheap, it may have been a deal or an error.

£25 does seem very cheap.
