yes. I have noticed this trend for about the last 4 weeks, but yikes ch-5 jumped 10.00 in the last few days.

Making the used stick of bh-5 I purchased look like a bargain- wonder how long it will be till it bottoms out again :(

I still do that... but its not my problem the prices are going up. Dont get me wrong, i love it when ram is cheap, but its just crazy that this ram is as "old" as it is and its value and demand is going up.
