The one I linked has a heat spreader which these dont. The second link on yours is for 2Gb's at £140. Well you can hav 2Gb with heatspreaders from eBuyer for the same price. On top of that those sticks at eBuyer are 5300/5400 (667Mhz) while your 2Gb link is for 4200(533Mhz I think).
As for scan being evil lol. So are eBuyer. Most retailers have a blemished record. Some more than others. Guess your going to hav to weigh up cost vs reputation. _________________

You obviously have a tale to tell can we hear it, carries more weight if you can back it up.

its somewhere in the left of steam section....
I got a monitor. Unwrapped it. Plugged it in. Oh dear, four dead pixels, and two of them smack bang in the middle. That makes it elligable for return. Pack it up. Ring up scan. Gets collected. They ring back saying there's only one red dead subpixel, that'll be £20 to get your monitor or money back.
Whereas ebuyer would just go 'meh' and give you a refund within the first 3 months. I reported this as faulty within three hours dammit.
