I ordered some Crucial DDR3 PC-10600 from a 3rd party retailer and it came with a typo on both the plastic package and the sticker on the module itself. Instead of PC3 10600, it says PC3 1600. Anyone ever see this before? Should I be worried that it's counterfeit?

The retailer has already issued me a refund RMA so I'm not worried about any shady business on their part, but I thought it was unusual to see a typo on something from Crucial. I'm not really sure what to make of it.

its supposed to say pc3-10600, probably just a typo by the sticker machine programmer, although the package looks different than the current ones. (edit- at least the us based stuff does)
 
I really wouldn't worry about it. Typos happen. If you are really concerned about it, i would contact Crucial directly and ask them about it.
