I noticed the flash drive price can change from week to week. How long is my quote good for?

Flash memory is traded as a commodity, which can cause pricing to fluctuate daily.

Your quote is normally good for the remainder of the week until the following Monday. Pricing may be warranted for a longer period of time, depending on market price fluctuations and inventory levels.  Speak to your account manager to get the latest pricing available prior to placing your order
