1.0 out of 5 stars Beware LinkTronics!, October 16, 2009

This review is from: 1GB Memory Upgrade 4 IBM ThinkPad T40, T40 2375, T40 2376, T40 Pentium M2373-xxx, M2374-xxx, M2378-xxx, M2379-xxx, T40p Pentium M2373-xxx, T41 2375, T41 2376, T41 Pentium M 2373, 2374, 2378, 2379-xxx, T41P, T42 Pentium M, T42P Pentium M, 10K0035

I thought buying from this company through Amazon would assure legitimate business practices, but alas, I was mistaken.

LinkTronics will send you a few ounces of expensive memory for a $19 shipping fee. You will find only after it is shipped, and your account is charged, that domestic delivery is estimated to take three weeks.

Your next step will be to look at Amazon's return policy for third-party sellers like LinkTronics. There you will find that you are required to return the item to LinkTronics with a faster, more expensive method of shipping than they use to send it to you! See below for that. And, of course, they pocket the $19 "shipping" fee -- they won't refund it.

So a company sells a product cut-rate and makes a 15% margin -- all on shipping on a USPS slow-boat (I contacted them and they refused to send it UPS). Quite a racket, if you ask me.

Here's from Amazon's return policy for third-party sellers:

Shipping and handling charges for returning Marketplace items are borne by the buyer. To ensure the safe return of the merchandise, items valued at over $75 must be returned to the seller with a traceable shipping service. If the order is valued at $100 or more, insure the shipment for the value of the merchandise and ship your return with a signature shipping service. For items below $75, we suggest USPS delivery confirmation service.

I purchased 1GB of Rambus RDRAM for a Dell Precision 330 PC. The product arrived in 4 business days with absolutely no problem. The price was excellent and the product works great.

Adding this RAM chip to my IBM Thinkpad t42 really sped things up. Apps load faster and surfing the internet is much nicer with pages loading very quickly.
