Refund not an option as the Ram would cost over half my build (despite running an Nvidia 5070ti) if I were to buy it now, which I couldnt do even if I wanted to sadly. But yeah, the apprehension is real. Cheers!

Appreciate that, and yeah, I ordered right before things went off the deep end. But its long reached a point where I can't return parts which is not a great situation to be in.

Hi there
So the Chinese price drops seems an isolated incident. I've spoken to over ten memory manufacturers now and none have reduced their wholesale pricing, some have increased it. At present ONLY Corsair is doing some sell out rebates but generally quite limited.
Still saying that most of these Chinese sell of deals were dropping memory kits from around $500 USD, down towards $350 USD, so in other words they were simply attempting to scalp and got burnt, even at $350 if there stock is old they would have still made huge profits, but it seems most have now cleared through excess stocks. As such there is no official price drop and prices are still looking to be on an upward trend.

However it is not all bad news, off the back of this incident I did manage to get a supplier sell up their old stock, as such we now have a 32G kit at just £259.99, making us around £100 cheaper than the next cheapest place in the UK for a 32G DDR5 kit:
For those who want nicer specification memory we still have our epic deal on 32G of 6000MHz C30:
In current climate these are truly amazing deals.

Well that’s good customer service.
@Gaian youre more patient than I am. I wouldn’t have waited 5 months to find out what was happening but at least you’ve got a good result now!

Everything looks solid to me, the slightly lower voltage is nice too. Compatible with EXPO so I'm happy with that. I'd be delighted to make the swap and get things sorted. Massively appreciate that Gibbo. It's been an anxious wait so I'm grateful for that.No ETA

Ah I sent two or three emails to customer service over that time but I understand its a difficult time so I waited it out and gave the benefit of the doubt. At 5 months though I was getting sweaty palms with no ETA and cancellation would have been catastrophic.
Will definitely remember the great customer service in the future when I'm buying @Gibbo .

Nice to see RAM prices slowly come down, still stupidly high though. My Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR5 6000 CL30 64GB 2x32GB kit hasn’t changed in price whatsoever; it went from £270 to around £1000 (+- £100) and it’s still there.
Wish I bought another kit when it was cheap. I certainly will be if it ever reaches around £300 roughly or close to it.

RAM pricing appears to be reducing if only a little.
Hopefully, this correction continues and we see the end of the procurement insanity.
That being said, if the bubble does pop, we may end up in another huge economic downturn so nobody will have the money to spend in the first place.

Hey Gibbo, is there any of the 12/24gb gigabyte kits available and what would you recommend in 2x32gb and 2x64.
Well, Trump and Putin have already made that certainty.

Great point and 100% agreed. That Fifa peace prize is really worth its weight in lead right now.
All your RAMz have been sent to Hormuz. Please pay the Iranians 10 Yuan per gigabyte in BTC to unlock.
Thank you for your attention to his matter,
President DJT.
a corrupt organisation giving a corrupt head-of-state their "peace prize" whodathunk lol
