The main problem with some stores is they use the buy in bulk and save 
motto, doesn't work if you can't sell the gear in a week or two. Only time 
it worked for me was when I purchased a heap of ram years ago then the 
earthquake hit and ram prices tripled, It was a good time to have over 
purchased. Problem is that RAM prices drop too often to keep too many in 
stock. Same with most PC parts but if a chain store gets a 50% discount on a 
container load of thumb drives then the wholesale price drops by 80% while 
that load is in transit, which often happens they are stuck flogging off 
yesterdays in thing.
The longer they have it the worse it gets. Wouldn't you like to pay premium 
prices for a 1GB sticks and then have 2GB available for less.
