What is the difference between Intel 520 models SSDSC2CW060A310 and SSDSC2CW060A3K5 besides the $15.00 price difference?
Is one OEM, and one retailer packaged?

Correct, the A3K5 is Reseller Packaged, and the A310 is OEM Packaged.

This is from Intel's website:

Here is some additional information on the differences between the packaging on the Intel® SSDs (including the 320s, 510s and the new 520s). The Part # will end with a 10, K5 or B5 based on that information you will be able to tell what comes in the box with the SSD.

If the part # ends with 10 it comes with the SSD, warranty, a sticker and in a brown box.

If the part # ends with K5, it is the reseller box and comes with:
*The SSD
*One-page flyer with web links
*Mini CD-Rom with installation and warranty documents.
*Desktop install kit:
-Drive bracket and screws
-SATA signal cable
-SATA power cable

If the part # ends with B5, it is the retail box and comes with:
