Thumbs up

RAM is similar to spuds and cucumbers.

The price varies depending on many external factors, and such things as wars, terrorist attacks, disastors, import/export costs etc tend to affect the cost of production greatly.

Prices set to rise further. Due to over supply some of the plants have shut down meaning less oversupply to less silly prices.
