Is it worth this bother just to save a few pounds?Originally posted by d000hg View Post10% cheaper in fact. And that's before delivery, Amazon will next-day it for free (for Prime members) but Crucial want £10 for next day, or £4 for 1-2 days (which 90% of the time is next day, I'll grant you).Comment

Don't know where you got those delivery figures from, but Crucial charges £0.00 for 1st class Royal Mail and it arrives a day and a bit later.Originally posted by d000hg View PostThe only issue there is they don't have a dedicated RAM section allowing you to search efficiently. I spotted Crucial RAM and SSDs cheaper on Amazon than on Crucial's website, about 10% cheaper in fact. And that's before delivery, Amazon will next-day it for free (for Prime members) but Crucial want £10 for next day, or £4 for 1-2 days (which 90% of the time is next day, I'll grant you).Comment

I typically order from Crucial. Good RAM but I'd pay a bit more for their uprated stuff as their low-end stuff tends to last about 3 years than goes. I've had two PC's upgraded with Crucial RAM do just that.McCoy: "Medical men are trained in logic."
