I'd say $75-80 is a little high for 256MB SDRAM. More like, $40-50, depending on the type that you get. Maybe that much for high-spec overclocking DDR SDRAM, but not just for plain old SDRAM...

depends in where you go I guess...I know newegg.com probably sells SD RAM for around that much, but I couldnt find the SDRAM I needed there. I know at wal-mart a crappy old lite-on single layer dvd burner costs around $80. But I went to newegg and bought a double layer dvd burner for $50.

My karma ran over your dogma.
