Cheaper or not, that is for the customer to do the work to find where it may be. Not for you lot to come on to our forums and attempt to remove business. Competitor talk regardless of you mentioning who it may or may not be is still competitor talk. You all know this is not allowed.
 
Now £152.99.

Oh and prices are not dropping on Crucial due to a certain other etailer ruining a brand value, they are actually as of earlier this week going up to restore value worth for the record.
 
it makes no sense though, the sammy 830 is faster than the m4 (not so much in real world usage maybe) and can be had for cheaper (when the m4 is not being discounted like today)
the only thing that is going for the m4 is its more proven reliability and even then the 830 is slowly catching up cuz of the time its been out.

if the prices on the m4 are rising, they've effectively priced themselves out of the competition

Its not a massive amount, literally a couple of £££s here and there but it makes a difference to the end user if the etailer doesn't swallow the difference.
 
Im going to extend the promo until 9am tomorrow but at a slightly higher price, take a look!
