RAM Scalpers Sell at Very High and Unreasonable Prices on the Internet

RAM touts – In the last few months, RAM price conditions have made many consumers increasingly worried about the very high jump and far from the previous price. This happened because the AI ​​technology market trend caught the attention of many companies, so many of them bought RAM from distributors in large quantities.

Seeing this condition, RAM scalpers on the internet started to take action and sell these devices at very high and unreasonable prices. How much do they sell for?

RAM Scalpers Start Selling at Unreasonably High Prices on the Internet

One of the clearest examples is the Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 CL30 32GB RAM (2x16GB) where the previous price was sold for $118 or around Rp. 1.96 million and that was relatively stable for quite a long time. But in the last few months, the price suddenly jumped sharply to $430 or around Rp. 7.51 million, an increase of more than 3.5 times.

At the same time, there are also scalpers on eBay who sell the same RAM for up to $1054 or around Rp. 17.53 million. This means that if you buy via scalper, users will have to pay around 9 times the normal price in 2023.

Not only that, the 96GB (2x48GB) version, which was previously only priced at $480 (around Rp. 7.98 million), now has an official retail price of $999 (around Rp. 16.61 million). What’s worse, scalpers on eBay are selling at very unreasonable prices of up to $2660 (around Rp. 44.25 million).

Impacts large companies to small businesses

The increase in memory prices has had a major impact on various business scales, from large companies to small businesses. A number of custom PC builders such as CyberPowerPC and Maingear have even previously increased the prices of their rebuilt PCs because device prices have also soared.

Dell has also done the same thing, which is reportedly also affected and is currently making price adjustments. However, Lenovo is said to be able to hold back price increases for the time being because it is rumored to have stockpiled large amounts of stock, which it claims is enough to meet production needs until 2026.
