Comment on These RAM prices are out of hand

I have 4 sticks of ddr5 16gb, I’m seeing the exact model selling on Amazon with a delivery window of tomorrow for a total of $800. I paid $200 a year ago. It’s a good ROI but Im not seeing anything near the $3-5 grand shown.
It’s a good ROI
You’re part of the problem.
Thinking buying PC memory “as an investment” so you can upsell it or just the thought process of “my RAM is appreciating in value”, is just so stupid to me…
But we’ve all been indoctrinated into this capitalist slop to varying degrees.
He said it is a good roi, not that he bought it originally thinking of it as an investment

ROI: Return On Investment
“He said he got a good return on his investment, but it wasn’t an investment, he wasn’t thinking about investment returns, but he got a good return on his investment.”
Cheesus apeshit fucking christmas.
Correct, you can purchase something without the intention of it being an investment and it still ends up being profitable. It’s a pretty simple concept, friend. I don’t think doubling down is the right approach for you here. Maybe you just read it wrong?
Uh no, I bought it for a new build but it didn’t work with my mobo and the return window closed before I could build the machine and find that out. I’ve had it for 1.5 years.

The entire reason I posted it. I messaged the seller about the price to see what they’ll say.
