$139 for two 8GB Corsair Memory sticks!!! That is unreal! Just a few months ago you would pay north of $1k for that memory! (Actually I have seen the same memory for $114 with a rebate).

A few years ago the memory industry got nailed with a lawsuit for price fixing. It was one thing that was way overpriced, compared to the rest of the electronics industry.

That was around the time that Epson and other companies would charge a ridiculously-low price for an ink jet printer, like $85 for a nice one, but the replacement ink cartridges would cost you $30 each, and didn't last very long.
