1/5

Memorymedia certainly has a great selection of memory products at reasonable prices; however, in my experience, the advertised prices are not reliable. I was looking at memory prices on pricewatch.com when I came across a reasonable offer for 512 MB of SDRAM for my PC2700-capable motherboard. Memorymedia's ad instructed buyers to mention Pricewatch in order to get the lower price, so when I ordered the RAM via their site, I did. Shipping was pretty fast, but when I received the memory, they still invoiced me the price on their own website and not the one listed on Pricewatch. Consequently, I filed a complaint through Pricewatch, but didn't get any response. Finally, when I got my credit card statement, it turned out that Memorymedia, in addition to ignoring their promises on Pricewatch, had charged an additional $3.10 to my credit card. Where they got that amount from, I have no idea. I have subsequently tried to contact the company multiple times, but it seems that my requests for an explanation of their conduct are being consistently ignored. I will certainly never do business with this company again, and I would not recommend them to anyone else, despite the fact that the amount of my dispute with them is relatively small. Either you're honest or you're not - to me, there's no middle ground.
