Since the SIMMS were NEW, and the buyer dropped them, chances are a lot better
that the buyer zipped the SIMMS.

The basic point I was TRYING to get across was that the buyer dropped the SIMMS
and that the SIMMS were covered by the manufacturer's LIFETIME warranty,
however the buyer didn't wish to go that route, instead he wanted his money
back, which I politely REFUSED...however, I did offer the pay for the FEDEX
shipping to the manufacturer for the buyer and called and got the manufacturer
to call him with an RMA and he (the buyer) is apparently going to ship it to CT
on Thursday.

Situation RESOLVED, except I am pissed because this hit the net and although
the posting was cancelled, some people are wanting the original poster to
re-hash the whole thing. The net result is - the buyer did exactly what I
offered almost a week ago.
