RAM price query

[Ryth_cs]

Hey,

I am looking for some high speed and affordable RAM and came across the Corsair CMK16GX4M4B3000C15. I compared prices from multiple websites and cannot figure out why the price is so different between NewEgg and Amazon (linked below).

NewEgg - http://www.newegg.com/global/uk/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233740

Amazon - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-CMK16GX4M4B3000C15-Vengeance-Performance-Desktop/dp/B00QXT5MNM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1462878582&sr=8-1&keywords=CMK16GX4M4B3000C15

Cheers,

Smiffy

Okay, but that's still a £20 price difference that I cannot figure out, any ideas?

if the product ID is the same (they are) then it's probably the same thing

just different pricing

Okay, I just didn't want to buy one and it turn out they are not identical.
