Don’t expect it to fall in India anytime soon. Indian retailers will milk you for a long time, even after the prices fall in the international market.
Supply always catches up with demand.
Indian retail scene is very bad. Always get refurbished stuff in times like this.

Off SSD are 100 in us, they were 300 in EU. So doesn’t make a difference.
Exactly this.
In india, how retail prices are decided is by profitability.
If prices go up, even old cheaper stock prices go up along with new expensive stock.
If prices go down, old stock has to be sold at previous high price before restocking with new cheaper stock with the excuse of high procurement of old expensive stock.
Then again, 2ndhand prices will follow retail price. Can’t blame 2ndhand prices much though if retail price does not adjust.
All raw material prices related to cooling are meanwhile increasing exponentially in Germany.
Don’t expect any relief as a PC builder.
at this stage, it’s almost as if they collectively decided to F the pc industry in particular. What’s next? Costlier ACs for us because DCs need cooling? Power cuts for us because DCs need power?
It’s like we can’t catch a break since the pandemic. Way too many changes in the world, way too fast.
Literally one of those times where a few years feel like a couple of decades.
actually AC prices are increasing by more than 10% this season compared to last year

Ram prices are continuing to fall in germany (are they blessed :P)
That’s a really poorly titled news article.
The only reason why RAM prices are “falling” in Germany is because they were stupidly high to begin with.
Now they’re on par with the US prices, that’s not a price drop, that’s a price correction.
RAM prices are still absurdly high.
They’re just less high in Germany.
$475 old Germany price
$380 new Germany price
$350 old US price
$370 new US price

Some shorts creators already started uploading videos on it lol, “RAM prices are decreasing already” “AI bubble has started to burst in 2026”
Most articles news headlines are intentionally written such a way that until you click it and read it fully, the story is a whole different/opposite thing.
Is it too much to wish for that the bubble is so fragile that such news could snowball into the bubble actually bursting? No? Ok then…
buy low, sell high.
Exactly what’s happening rn.. People have been selling old stock of rams for extremely high prices.
I don’t blame the used market, because retail decides the used prices, but the problem currently is if u buy used ram, and it fails, companies are refunding people based on invoice value instead of an rma. TLDR, if u get a bad stick used, u are screwed.
