A month ago, I was pricing out some top-end Kingston HyperX CAS2 DDR-400 1GB sticks, and they were only $21 or $23 each. Now they aren't even available anymore, and the cheapest DDR-400 1GB stick at NewEgg is over $30. I don't understand, what with the falling economy, why the price of DDR is going up. It's not like there is increased demand for it, certainly not.
Is it just the usual tech pricing cycle, where prices increase for the Christmas season, and then it takes a month or so for them to decline back to what they were at?
Or did a pricing mgr at NewEgg decide that their DDR prices were too low across the board.
Edit: HyperX CAS2 2x1GB kit still available for $70, here
