Solve : Secure Your Share of a $310 Million RAM Price Fixing?

Answer»

From last year. First time I saw this about DRAM price fixing.
The AG of Maryland, USA, says PC owners who paid too much for DRAM and apply for a refund. The settlement was for $310 in price-fixing suit.

"Maryland consumers who KNOW or can estimate the number of DEVICES they bought during this PERIOD should go online and file a claim," said Attorney General Gansler. "This case, which has been in the works for years, shows we are committed to providing real relief to all Maryland consumer victimized by this price-fixing scheme."
Now if California would join in....
Not the first time for this issue to surface, but surprised MD waited until March 2014 to act on this ( late ) .... I actually got a notice in the mail about 10 years ago about a class action LAWSUIT. I filled it out and submitted copies of my receipts as proof of purchase for the memory that was purchased, and in the mail about 5 or 6 months later a check showed up for payment back to me for antitrust wrong doing on their behalf. When i bought the memory, I didnt pay a crazy price tag for any of it. But it was nice to get a check in the mail to use to fill up the gas tank and grab lunch for free. I wish i had purchased more RAM to get an even bigger payment, but I only bought what I needed for myself and for client custom builds and upgrades etc, and had no clue that there was any wrong doing on their part until i got the class action paperwork in the mail that gave me a deadline to respond by and instructions on the information required for claim placement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DRAM_price_fixing
