RAM prices got so bad that thieves ignore whole computers just to snatch memory sticks. A sticky-fingered opportunist raided an office space and smashed through tempered glass side panels to rob the machine. This individual ignored everything else inside the rig but grabbed four 32GB Micron modules before vanishing. Moving an entire heavy tower takes way more effort than pocketing expensive silicon.

The victim posted about this bizarre heist on a Korean forum while noting complications with coverage. Their insurance manager struggles to calculate payouts because street values keep climbing higher every single day. Replacement costs for specific components hit absurd levels thanks to massive global shortages choking supply lines.

Experts warn this scarcity nightmare persists well past 2028 despite factories spending billions on expansion. Manufacturers like Micron admit that supply chains have remained broken for years. Single 256GB kits currently retail for thousands of dollars, which makes loose memory incredibly attractive for black market sellers looking to flip hardware.
