4 grand for 8 sticks of 64MB, makes about 500 bucks for one stick. dude, selling my one 64MB stick would give me enough cash to buy at least one 512, probably 2 of those.

May be deliberate price hiking, someone puts the price at something stupid, and then someone stupider comes along.....
Or the first bidder may have been an Earthshatteringly advanced Moron.

Reminds me of a programming quote....

Programming is a constant battle between Programmers and Evolution.....

Programmers strive to create the ultimate Idiot-proof program, while Evolution works to produce the ultimate Idiot. ;)

Or merely sellers that bid on their own BS items in order to jack up their ratings.

$500 for a 64MB stick of RAM..... That's enough to buy 2GB of high-end DDR-400....
