So I bought new ddr2 memory. 2x1gb kit. The price I paid was $326 with free shipping.

After I bought the memory and it had shipped, I went back looking at the memory and I now see the memory is not in stock and is setup to auto notify. The funny part is they raised the price to $345


That just strikes me as funny( in a odd way).

So lots of people bought the memory, you bought the last piece, and newegg decides to raise the price to make some more cash. You find it funny 'cause you got in on the "deal" before they jacked up the price? Or you find it funny haha 'cause you bought the last piece at the low low price so you can brag about it on ATOT?

Congradulations on the realization that prices fluctuate. Just don't be surprised when you notice the local gas station raises their prices a dime a gallon tomorrow, and especially when the station really jacks up the price when their tanks are very low & their next shipment is not due for a while.

Well it is 4GB's but damn, no way in hell I'd spend that much on memory.

Congrats, even with the lower price, you paid too much for your memory
