$310 million DRAM price fixing settlement could get you $10

I bet my friend with over 20 PCs will get lots of money from this.

I got a $10 Itunes credit in a CA suit some years ago. The suit charged that the shiny Ipod enclosure got scratched very easily. (It did, but so what? Am I to sue Kingsford just because my hands get blackened when I handle their charcoal?)

Anyway, let's not be discouraged by the small payouts from such actions. The payout is punishment for the perpetrator. It serves notice that they can be held accountable.

It's comforting to know that lawyers are doing their part to stimulate the economy.

I wonder if that is what stimulated resellers to hike ram prices by as much as 50%?

Eg $299 32gb memory now costs $416.

I decided to cancel my claim since I may not be living in America when I get my cash.

I just got settlement check for $ 81.47 after waiting 2 yrs & 4 months

I think I will check out Newegg's Daily Deals

I bought 2 machine at the end of 2009 I don't believe I joined the claims deal though.

Rebates aside.... I buy hundreds of dollars worth of RAM every year, and I'd just like to see lower prices at the point of sale. That's where I'd like to see my own rebate.

Several years back, when Gold prices spiked, so did RAM prices, because there is Gold in RAM.
But it's such a minute amount, that I never did see the need for the huge jump in ram pricing.
