Speaking only as a satisfied customer:

I bought 1.5MB of used 150ns DRAMs from Micro-C.  It cost me $108.00
plus shipping (yes, $2.00 per chip).  Their price is now $1.75, but bear
in mind they have a $100 minimum order.  They took my Master Card number
by phone and the package arrived five days later.  The RAM arrived clean,
straight, and properly packed including being entubed.  It runs fine in
my combo card.  Mine are Fujitsu chips, but this varies.

Micro-C is at 11085 Sorrento Valley Ct, San Diego, CA. 92121, 619-522-1213.
