    Strike one. From Newegg's policies:

    "Newegg.com does not offer International/Canadian shipping options at this time."

    Thanks for the links. Does anyone know what type of RAM is compatible with Dell notebooks?

    If you do not know what type you need, one of the easiest ways is to use a memory configuration tool on memory vendor websites. Crucial has a pretty good "Memory Advisor" tool on the front page. Just select your manufacturer and model and it will tell you what kind of memory you need. Using that type, you can then go search around for the best price.

    If you are asking about whether some memory is incompatible with Dell products, don't worry about that. If you just find the type, any vendor's chips of that type will be compatible.
