Hello,

I just bought 2 samsung 512mb ram (pc2100, sodimm) on ebay but when i received the rams it doesn't say anywhere that they are samsung rams. So when i asked the seller he says that if i didn't receive samsung rams then it means that it's stock was over and i was sent a Micron technology ram instead and he also says MT rams are among the best out there.

But how do i know if i truely receive an MT ram and not some fake ones? Is MT ram better than a samsung one??

Should i report him to ebay?

Report him and get your money back! Crucial sell RAM pretty cheaply anyway so I don't bother with eBay for that.

eBay sellers often run ads

RAM for Samsung
RAM for Dell
...

thinking we will pay extra for that rather than generic.

What is it for, as I have a 1Gb stick for a Q35 lying around somewhere.

Get your money back. PC2100 is best bought from a reliable place.

You could probably get PC3200 as well, the fastest RAM in your form factor.

But buy a labelled brand. Much more reliable and you get a guarantee often for life. Well worth it.
