When did RAM prices start going up?

I bought 4 x's 4 = 16GB of Samsung MV-3V4G3D-US_DDR3 modules for $96 delivered to Ontario Canada and it runs at 1867Mhz 9-9-9-24-1T - 1.34v - Other then good timing for buying ram - What more could I ask for ;o)

I just upgraded to 2011 and need 1866mhz RAM, but there is no way I'm paying these prices. I got 2x8GB DDR3-1600 last year for $59.99. I'd like to get 4x8GB DDR3-1866, but paying $300 is asinine. RAM costs more than the 4820k lol. We should start a RAM boycott.

Plus I want to go quad channel and don't want to buy another set of 1600mhz. I'd rather start fresh with 1866mhz. Oh well. Its pointless anyway when the kits cost as much as my CPU.
