A reliable vendor will include the Samsung product number, in describing their offering.

For example, Mushkin now has 512MB Samsung rdram 1066, which is the real new Samsung, available on their site, in addition to genuine Samsung 256MB 1066 modules.

From Samsung: "There are some modules sold as PC1066 in the market which is not originally tested and screened at Samsung and we cannot warranty the quality and specification of the product. When you buy the Samsung PC1066 product you are recommended to check the module number on the label circled in red."
