[DEAD] 256MB K-Byte PC2100 RAM - $12.99 AR

Had the same problem when I tried to access the rebate on a machine running XP, but then I went over to my win98 box and was able to pull it right up.
 
I got some K-Byte RAM recently, and the manufacturer on the chips was "SpecTek", which turns out to be Micron's repair/remanufacture operation. Second-quality stuff. So I think the moral of this story is to check the chips and make sure you're getting something halfway decent.

If you have a popup stopper you'll have to turn it off.
I had to turn off AdShield to view it (I'm running XP).

just right click on the link and hit save as...............

 
do you guys recommend getting this to go with already 768mb of crucial memory to go to 1 gig? i do not plan to overclock. will this in any way slow my system down compared to just crucial alone?

 
specktek should be good... not great or anything but hey its 13$

not much point adding more ram and this stuff probably wont do cas 2 and overclock etc..

how did you get the staples PM to work?

Made the order at staples.com with a $10 off of $50 coupon. Called Staples for pricematch. They already had some kind of pm logic worked out, where they gave you the 110% pm, but made sure to charge you for expensive $11.99 next day shipping, cause it would be delivered the next business day. I tried to explain that it is available for me to pick up at my local microcenter B&M, but they were set in stone on this.

By the time my $10 coupon was applied, the total came out to $46.09 incl. tax, less $30 mir = 15.09.

My microcenter total is $34.97 less $20 mir = $14.97.

Add postage, and that's $30.80 for 512mb!🙂

I wonder what would happen if I went to Staples B&M with my microcenter receipt (for instore p/u) and tried to pm?

😀
 
np

Anyone know how long it usually takes to get an e-mail confirming you can pick-up the item in store? I placed my order a few hours ago, and wanna pick it up tommorow.
 
Thanks for the deal.....

I had problem open the rebate form, however I just right click and save it....works fine.....
 
Deadbeats at Kbyte never paid the $10 rebate for a stick purchased at Best Buy over a year ago. Heads up, and be careful. This is a nice deal at $12.99, but not so nice if it ends up costing you $32.99 + a stamp and annoyance.

So I bought some more Kbyte sdram, with rebate, last month. A Staples deal with a Staples rebate. I would't touch it otherwise.

Low quality ram. The sdram I received had 6 month old off-brand chips on it. It does run ok in a secondary system.
 
I picked up a stick and put it in my secondary rig, next to a stick of Kingston. Unit is running fine, no problems, but I'm not oc'ing or planning on it.
