Doubt it. CamelCamel says it was reduced yesterday: http://uk.camelcamelcamel.com/Computers-A58M-E-Micro-Motherboard-Express-Socket/product/B00JFOFM28
So more likely, someone at Amazon found out / was told that PC World had it on offer and Amazon price-matched. Common behaviour from Amazon but I wonder once they've done a Walmart/Tesco on all retail sectors and killed of all/most of the other players will they still do price-matching?
Hey, I love good prices and great CS as much as the next person but I do wonder if Amazon will not end up biting us all eventually. Certainly, aside from not paying much (any) taxes, it seems that next to nobody is actually happy working for them: not the warehouse staff, not the outsourced delivery staff, and (at least in the US) their actual office staff seem to get a lot very aggressive targets. Race to bottom.

Well the biggest con with Amazon has already passed. Wipe out the competition then steadily increase the minimum order value for free delivery. Of course Prime is the final nail in the consumer coffin as it starts to look like 'good value' thanks to all their bolt-on services. In reality it's just incredibly smart marketing tactics which progressively limits your options.

That's great news. More deals for the rest of us to find. Did you ever consider Amazon price matched?
What about the Nvidia 260x graphics cards for £24.97 available recently. The 270 for £39.97. All sold out now but I reckon in your eyes they weren't bargains.

Yes its £10 more than it usually is. I wouldn't bother with this board looking at the power delivery.
Best off using to make a super cheap system. This, A4-6300, 4GB ram, 120GB SSD and a basic case+PSU bundle should set you back less than £110 for a whole system (excluding OS). Would be fine for a family/office PC.

IMHO this thing about amazon and taxes is a load of tosh...if it means they reduce the price to the consumer, I am all for it
The tax system has grown into a huge monster, sucking money in from all sources, for the purpose wealth redistribution, not as a social security safety net. The things that our tax money is spend on these days just beggers belief
The more money in a system, the more chance for the pigs to have a go at the trough
Money and how it is spend is better left to individuals that earned it, not the freeloaders that want their unfair share by promoting their own selfish causes
As for amazon's workers. I feel sorry for them, but if their work is too hard, they should quit. Me paying money to a company that pays corporation tax in the UK just skews the system and doesn't improve working conditions, as it encourages poor pay and conditions with the govt paying out tax credits to underwrite these poor pay and conditions
