How long have you been in business? TOP  
RamTechnologies is the child company of Beltz Technologies, Inc. We have been providing outstanding customer service and product sales since 1996.


Will you share my information with other companies? TOP  
We will never share any personal information including your email address for any reason other than required by law.


Is my order transaction and information secure? TOP  
For transaction security, we use 128-Bit SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology. Your account information and transaction data are stored in encrypted databases. Most browsers will indicate a secure connection within the status bar at the bottom of your screen. (Look for the padlock during checkout)


What forms of payment do you accept? TOP  
We accept the following: Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, Government Impact Credit Card, Check or Money Order


I don't have a credit card. Can I have my package shipped C.O.D.? TOP  
Unfortunately, we only ship merchandise which has been pre-paid. You may download and print an order form off our Web site and send that in with your check or money order.


How do I set up an account with your company? TOP  
Our company does not offer time payments for individual orders. We do, however, accept all major credit cards as a form of payment for online orders.

We do offer Open Accounts to Government Agencies and Major Corporations for large quantity orders. For more information, please e-mail sales@RamTechnologies.net


How much will shipping be? TOP  
We offer all standard UPS shipping options including Ground, 3-Day, 2-Day and Next Day shipping. We have partnered with UPS to ensure the best possible pricing on shipping. As such, we do not give flat rate shipping. It is our experience, that flat rate shipping is not in the best interest of the customer. For that reason during the checkoutorder process, we contact UPS with the shipping information (zipcode, weight, etc) to get up to the date and accurate pricing. To see what it would cost to ship your order, click on the "View Cart" link at the top of the page after adding an item. It will ask you for your zipcode. Click "Find Shipping" and it will display the UPS shipping options and pricing.


How do I place an order? TOP  
RamTechnologies takes a lot of pride in our customer service. If you are not sure if a product is exactly what you need or want more information, call one of our experienced professionals. They will help you with any questions or problems you might have. The call is toll-free at (715) 834-9797. We can even take your order over the phone. You will get all of the same notifications you would get if you ordered from our website, including a confirmation of approval and shipment tracking information.

To purchase online, click on the "Add to Cart" button and you will be directed to the shopping cart for review. You can continue shopping at this point or simply choose the quantities you would like and finalize your order. You will be given the opportunity to adjust your billing and shipping information and then you will be prompted for your credit card information. At this point, you will be ready to place your order. After your order is processed and approved, you will receive an email confirmation. Once your order has been processed for shipment, you will receive a shipment tracking number so you will have the ability to track your package.

All internet orders are placed with SSL (Secure Socket Layer) security and your order information is then encrypted before being placed in the database.

We do NOT sell or give out customer information to 3rd party companies!


How quickly will my order be shipped? TOP  
Orders which are received by 2:00 p.m. Monday-Friday (Central Standard Time), and that are in stock, will be shipped within 24 hours, pending credit card approval. Orders which are received on weekends or holidays will be shipped on the next business day.


How long will it take for my order to get to me? TOP  
UPS Ground is the standard shipping option and usually takes 4-5 business days for delivery. We do, however, offer all UPS shipping options including Next Day, 2-day and 3-Day Select services.


How can I track the status of an order? TOP  
If you have included a valid email address in your order, you will receive a copy of your order request as well as order tracking information directly from us upon shipment. You may also log into the Order Tracking section of our website and receive up to the minute updates on the status of your order.


I want to have my order shipped to a different address, will this cause any delays? TOP  
When shipping to a different address (other than your billing address) a delay in shipping your order may be due to our authorization/verification procedures. Because of this, be sure to include your daytime phone number so that we may contact you. This will help expedite your order.

As always, feel free to call our Customer Support Center at (715) 834-9797 with any questions/concerns you may have.


Some products say 'OEM'. What does OEM mean? TOP  
O.E.M (Open Equipment Manufacture) products are usually packaged and priced for assembly straight into a computer system. They are the genuine product, are covered by the same RAM Technologies warranties, however often are not packaged with colourful retail packaging, instruction booklets, bundled software or associated extras. For more information on what is included with your OEM product please contact our sales staff at sales@ramtechnologies.net.

OEM Warranty: Most OEM hardware components come with the same warranty as retail boxed ones. One well-known exception is microprocessors. The retail boxed processors often come with three-year warranty while the OEM ones come with a much shorter one, typically 30 days for Intel and 90 days for AMD. Please check with a sales representative for Limited Warranty information where applicable. We believe the extremely low failure rates of microprocessors justifies the difference in the warranty.


How do I know if the item I want is in stock? TOP  
All items that are currently in stock will say "In Stock" underneath the image and just above the price on the product details page (page describing in detail the item).

Please feel free to call Customer Service at (715) 834-9797 with any questions.


Do you carry the merchandise in your own inventory or does it ship direct from the manufacturer? TOP  
Everything that we sell to our online customers is direct from our own stock of merchandise. Although with some large quantity orders we do drop shipping in order to provide speedier service. Overall, we find that it is quicker, more efficient, and more reliable to stock the merchandise and ship it ourselves.


Do you have any good deals on closeout or discontinued items? TOP  
At times, we will have closeouts and/or discontinued items.Discontinued items show "This item has been discontinued" along with the quantity of the item we have left in stock on the Product Details page.


Do you sell used or refurbished merchandise? TOP  
At times, we do have used or refurbished items for sale. These items are ALWAYS indicated with "Used" in the description. Rest assured that the rest of the items on our site are BRAND NEW only. Used items carry a 90-day RAM warranty.


Can I "special order" an item that you do not have on your website? TOP  
Yes. We want you to contact our Customer Support Center at (715) 834-9797 for any special purchases which you may want to make. We are always adding new items to our website, and new products come out every day. Thus, if there is something in particular that you have in mind but do not see on our website, please contact us.
