[gRaps]

So i recieved bad ram and am in the process of RMAing the ram.

Now how do i go about packaging the ram? Am i supposed to get the electrostatic bag, where can i buy that because i have none at home.

Do i put it in a box or do i put it in an envelope.

i need a detailed description as this is my first time, please help thx

What did you do with all the packaging, antistatic clamshell, that the RAM came in?

You should check with the whomever you are RMA'ing it to

incorrect packaging will VOID your rma.. envelope = instant suicide

You must get some Antistatic Bags ... stop in at your local computer repair store or Best Buy
Talk to one of the techs .. they probably have a few laying around. You can also buy them,
but they are not dirt cheap ... Next time save all the antistatic packing .. other items, like the
box you can dispose of. Make sure to BOX the RAM and use some sort of cushioning, but
not the WHITE STYROFOAM PEANUTS as they will make Static .. . I prefer lots of Newspaper
.. works well and is easy to come by

You can buy bags here:

With a AS bag, I shipped all my RAM sandwiched between foam layers. I usually get them that way, so I save the stuff for another day.
I use the USPS Priority mail cardboard enclosures, the free pre-fab stuff, and off they go. Snug and light.
