Any reason why it should be different with RAM?

Also the GPU shortage hasn't gone anywhere as shown by the 50xx cards release and with Nvidia saying it will not even release new GPUs in 2026, it's only getting worse.

RAM is easier to make and there are way more fabs. It should be better.

Who in their right mind will sell it cheaper than the competitors?

Someone who's not an asshole. Also, of you sold it for cheaper you'd make bank because everyone would buy from you instead of your asshole competitors.
