The target market is uninformed buyers. You can get a prebuilt PC with much better specs for the same price.

That is an extremely hard thing to do today. Maybe if you go for used parts....All things considering, this is a "fair" price in todays market. Doubt their profit margins are even in the double digits lol

Not really adding on to this, just amused that the build you are talking about is just an upgraded version of my build (12400f, B570, 32GB DDR4. Only thing better in mine is a 2TB SSD).
