Not happy

[valerian]

why is it when i buy something from OC a couple of days later it drops in price example, GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400C4 800MHz, i paid 190odd quid for it 2 days ago and now its 30 quid cheaper

extremely disappointed!

I paid £130 for mine a couple of months ago.




Sorry.

Make a list of all the PC components that you want to buy.
Now wait a month - I bet all but the memory will definitely have come down in price.
Now wait another month - I'm pretty sure it will all come down a little bit again.

There has to be a physical time when a price drop occurs - in theory you could order something one minute and the very next it has dropped in price.
Nothing you can really do about it.
Your best bet will be to wait for your order to arrive, return it under the Distance Selling Regulations and then buy yourself the same RAM again.

Or you can wait & wait & wait & then wait some more.
By that time new hardware will be out that you'll want & you'll still be paying a high price.
Sods law.
If we all waited untill something dropped in price we'd never have anything thats up to date.
Just be happy that it works & does what you want it to.

im not that naive as to think the prices arent dropping all the time im just bothered that i have wasted 30quid in 2 days

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO im the exact same, mine arrived Tues.

SOOOOOOOOOOOON OOOOOOOOOOF AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BIIIIIITTTTCCC...


I kept scrolling down, i swear if i Saw the Dell screen and the Conroe's come down as well that would have finished me lol.

Well the Geil has been on THO atleast every other week since it first came into stock.

I would have bet my house (ok my landlords house) on it being put back on offer yesterday.

 

[humax]

do you think this memory will come down anymore ? or is now the time to buy it while its on THIS WEEK ONLY

 

[Cob]

I doubt it. It might come down another tenner at the most. The Corsair XMS and G-Skill are still at sky-high prices so it doesn't look like RAM prices are falling any.

But it's all speculation ofcourse.
