I wont buy Sandisk from eBay ... More fake Sandisk cards are sold on eBay then Sandisk actually make to distribute to all sources.
Ive seen the fakes, and unless you have a genuine card to compare it to you wouldnt know the difference.
The one Ive seen are actually half the reported size too.

wow, that price seems waaaay too good to be true, but who knows! I just bought an Extreme 3 8gb for $175 from 1800Memory (who are a SanDisk authorized registered business seller in AU) and that was pretty much the cheapest I could find that, so...

Is the one from 1800Memory original? I've been wanting to buy a card from them, but previously got a fake card from another seller on ebay, so i'm a bit worried now.

EDIT: oh, i see ebay lists them as a genuine seller.

Would you trust this seller? Or does the fact that someone retails via ebay mitigate the need for presentation?
