Just a few months ago Crucials 256DDR ram module was 30$ with free shipping. Does anyone know when the prices will come back down? They're selling a 2562100 DDR for 72$!! Unaceptable.

You never know, especially with something like memory - the prices fluctuate all the time.

Glad I bought some when I did.
$90 Usd for 2x 256MB Crucial pc2100 sticks shipped to Australia within 4 days in a great lil' box. I see I would be paying $144 Usd for the same thing right now! (Thats $290 coverted to Aussie mate!)

your cmplaining about 75 bucks?!? i remember when i had to scrap together 400 bucks to buy 2 megs of ram!!! for the old school computer users these times are heaven. it used to be that the top end systems were still not good enough for most things. now the budget pc's are doing high end multimedia.

ROFL.

I have to agree a little with that, heh. I still think that OCZ DDR I bought is worth $64.99 now.
