Much as I like teh Egg, there are times where I really have to wonder about them :p...

See this RAM kit, and the note about "Original Price: $68.99" and "You Save: $20.00"?

I've been camping that page for the past month waiting for it to dip below $50 (inc shipping) so I can add another kit. For about two to three weeks, it was priced at around $52.99. Sometime last week, the price jumped up to $68.99. Now, a few days later, it's priced back down to $48.99.

Magic $20 savings, no one will eeever notice that it's really a $4 savings ;)...

Hey Farva what's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy sh!t on the walls and the mozzarella sticks?

Kind of off topic but did anyone read the first review on the link provided?


Pros: Fast. Simply works. No problems yet.
Cons: Won't get me a girlfriend.
Other Thoughts: More cowbell.

Yeah, I did notice that every time I visited the page. Is it a reference to that Christopher Walken band spoof on SNL?

But you wanted it to dip under $50, and it has now done so. Why are you complaining?
