Anyone have any dificulties Returning Defective RAM to Googlegear?

Ok, Just about a whole day worth of tests on my RAM. From GoogleGear I bought two sticks of Kingston Hyper X PC3500 512MB Ram. I ordered the Ram about two weeks ago, and thus I have about 3 days remaining on my 'Return Window,' If I read GoogleGears 15 day Defective Return policy correctly. Anyway this stick cost me $120 each with free 2nd Day UPS shipping, yet now the current price has gone up to $125 each. After running hours of Memtest-86 Ver. 3.0 on my Ram and ABIT IC7 w/ Bios 1.13 and P4c 2.4 Ghz, running both sticks in Dual Channel mode; this one stick continuously gives me 'Failing Address / Error Bits' errors. It gives the same error even after trying it out in ALL 4 of the MB DIMM Slots.

Anyway, to the meat of the question, has anyone had any hassles returning such a 'high end' DDR Stick to GoogleGear? First thing in the morning I will be calling to try to get a RMA, but will they give me a hassle as the price has jumped $5 from when my I paid?

And more importantly, how long from when they get it, do they usually take to mail me a replacement. Thanks if anyone can offer any help.

 
Nope, RMAed my defective OCZ ram back to googlegear about a week ago and got it back yesterday. Haven't but it in yet but it looks like a new stick. Took sort of long, but they got it back...
