[comp.sys.amiga] Got my RAM!!!

Any of you Amigan's out there looking for some good prices for ZIPS, check out
WAVE ELECTRONICS, INC...1-800-433-3570
 
I placed my order for RAM on Monday, and got it today (Wed.).  While RAM
prices change just like gold, I got 2MB of Toshiba 256k x 4 static column,
80ns ZIPs for $10.95 a chip, or, 87.60 per MB (your mileage may vary).  The
total cost (including second-day-air UPS) was $184.25.  Local RAM prices START
at roughly $250/MB!!!  And that's for paged mode.
 
Be careful of UPS though...this guy was really trying to jerk me around.  He
came back about 3 hours after delivery saying I only gave him $84.25 (I wonder
what you have to do to get the job...can't be much).
 
Also, how many of you have tried installing ZIPs?  Pretty scary, eh?
