OCZ and Wal-Mart Ink a Deal
07.17.06 - 05:47pm
Earlier in the week OCZ, maker of high performance RAM modules, signed a deal with Wal-Mart. This deal will make OCZ products available online at walmart.com. Besides the exposure that OCZ will gain from joining up with Wal-Mart I don’t know what they will gain. Wal-Mart has never been a good venue to purchase electronics at as the prices tend to be considerably more expensive than even BestBuy and look terrible when compared to online retailers. If you need a good example of this, check out the hard drive section of walmart.com. Maybe if OCZ can push enough volume at decent prices we will see a decrease in the prices for OCZ’s products. I would love to see a 15% reduction in OCZ products, but I have a feeling that the volume Wal-Mart will push won’t be enough to put a dent into OCZ’s production.
