I, once, tried eBay but... eBay is full of fake flash memory. Already got bitten. So I'm looking for other online stores to buy them (or legit eBay stores/users). My locally-available stores (CompUSA, Best Buy, Radio Shack) do not have these on stock (most of the time) since they usually stock on whatever sells the most (usually cheap brand, slow cards). Any ideas/recommendations?
I got mine off eBay and have had no problems. Just my luck? It might be but is a class four, which I'm cool with. And only paid thirty bucks for it and it arrived in two days. Btw its not a name brand. I did some tests on it and passed as a genuine 32GB card. Three weeks in and no flaws. I'll post the link in a bit.

It's not a bad price, particularly if you want/need that bonus cable, it's no bargain either. You can get a 32GB Class 4 card for $27-35 from one of the many specials posted around here lately.
That's a normal price, not a steal but a good card

My 32gb Sandisk class 4 came in a couple days ago from a guy who is selling them on ebay for $35 and I love it. He's very trustworthy.

There are a LOT of fake micro sd cards on Ebay!!! Not saying that there aren't any legit sellers on there, but there are way more out to rip you off. Just be very careful if buying one on Ebay.
$23 for a 16gb Class 4 SanDisk card is a good deal. I haven't searched for a 16gb in over a year, but that is MUCH less than the last 16gb SanDisk card!! I've been using a 32gb SanDisk for over a year now, in my opinion that's the only way to go especially considering how freaking big Nandroids are on this phone!

Meh, 16GB cards have been at $25 +/- $5 for months, I don't think I paid more than $30 for my oldest one (c6) last thanksgiving. These things are definitely coming down in price, I'm we'll see some decent black friday deals too... Hard to argue with 32GB for less than double the price right now tho.

Yeah I got a 32gb PNY from Bestbuy, and I don't think there that great. Wanted to try one of those Patriot cards tho

I've got several Patriot, Transcend, and Sandisk cards ranging from 8-32GB, Class 2-4, they're all consistently underrated (Class 4 usually more like 5-6, class 6 closer to 10, etc.). All of them have lifetime warranties too IIRC except Patriot which does 5 years. No complaints with any... Sandisk c4 32GB cards are currently going for $35 or less at several deal sites, hard to beat.
Only PNY card I got is an old 2GB card that actually says Toshiba on it, bought it mostly for the keychain reader it came with I think.
Today only - 1saleaday.com. Seems like a good price for this *accessory*.
SanDisk 32GB Class 4 cost $28 USD.
I never bought from these guys, can someone recommend?
Good luck.
i would be tempted for at least a class 6 card myself.

The site is legit. I've ordered many things from there, all in perfect new working condition. The info always says if its new or remanufactured. The retail price is usually the highest price ever seen for something to make it look like a better deal.
Looks like a great deal. I got one for my TF.
I bought 2 from them via NewEgg at $35/each with no problems of one of them. Haven't tried the other one . . . yet.
Good price. I bought one from them through Newegg for $31. Verified with h2testw that it was indeed 32GB, and the speed was decent.
Went shopping yesterday.. A few places had 16gb cards for 16$ here in Canada, picked up 32gb card for 28$ from Staples.
Figured that I'd share....

I think SD cards are considered an Accessory. Just saying.
Yup.. I spaced on this.. hopefully a mod will come along and move this over.

Dude so what who cares it's just a thread
Thats a decent deal. For microSD cards, if you pay $1 or less PER GB, thats considered a deal.
-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
what class are the MSD cards? any possible links?
Not sure the rules on links.. but the card in question is here.
It's a Class 4 SDHC ... read 15 MB/second.. write is slower. Doesn't identify how much. Shown as "$50 off" and on sale til May 15.

A 64gb microsdhc card on eBay for ~$60 shipped from Hong Kong...... not sure if you are aware of this but the majority of these "too good to be true" deals on eBay for microsdhc cards from Asia are fake.
Don't be surprised if it is a counterfeit when you get it. I do not recommend anyone buy microsdhc cards from eBay. There are a lot of fakes out there and most importantly manufacturers will not honor your warranty if something were to go wrong with the card.
Be smart people, spend the extra money and buy from a reputable vendor like newegg, Amazon, bestbuy, staples, etc. You will thank yourself later.

All that.. plus there is no way I could sit back and wait for a full month for this card. I was plugging along with just a 4 GB card and really needed the 32 at LEAST. I figured this was a good trade off .. cash vs. patience.. LOL

The worst part is all that waiting for a counterfeit card. I just wish people used a little more common sense.

I would advise caution, and use a reputable ebay seller. Mine deserved his 5 stars review from me. I watched 50+gigs of video files get copied and show up and play, so I know I wasn't scammed. It is a genuine red-and-gray Sandisk.
But I won't speak for anyone else's lack of pre-research.
$65 bucks for a 64gb card is outstanding... and lucky for me, I am patient; years of cool and cheap goodies from dealextreme.com under my belt in preparation.
Example: picked up an outstanding leather case for my Note with the drawstrap built in, cost all of $2.60 and shipped for free. Those guys don't seem to care about losing money shipping small items from Hong Kong free.
(no, I did not buy the card from dx.com)
I agree, know what kind of seller they are before making the purchase. eBay isnt all that bad, ive bought hundreds of stuff on there and never got scammed. *knocks on wood*. Also, if you use paypal, you can always dispute an item.

There are so many sites offering stuff, usually I buy everything from Amazon. but wondering if anybody knows of any cool sales, looking to grab an SD for the phone. Hate to buy one only to find out after site X offered a 32GB for a killer deal lol, or if there is some crazy good 64GB deal out there.
I can get this on Prime which seems like a good deal with excellent reviews http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-microSDHC-Memory-Packaging-SDSDQM-032G-B35/dp/B004G60AD6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1337368411&sr=8-2
Would class 4 be too slow? I'm looking for a class 6 or higher.

I'm not sure b/c from what I'm seeing reading, the Scandisk micro SDs seem to perform better and sometimes way better benchmarking then their class specification.... and others seem to be just ok or worse (was looking at a class 6 from another company that others said performed more like a 4). Meanwhile the Scandisk cards were performing more like a 6 if not faster yet rated class 4.... odd lol
Prices will always be cheaper in the future so there is no point in waiting. Buy one if you feel like you need one right now.
Also, there are tons of fake memory cards out there so I'd advise you to pay a little more and buy directly from Amazon if you can. The one you posted is advertised on Amazon but "ships and sold by Everything But Stromboli".
This one is sold by Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007KFXIDE?psc=1

I got my two SanDisk 32gb micro sd cards (class 4) for like.. around $20 including shipping each from 1saleaday.com .. I also checked to make sure they were actually 32 gb, or at least the first one (i just stuffed a **** ton of things into it and made sure I could do it).
Check the other threads in the accessories forum, there should be at least one or two threads about SD cards. This thread should be moved there, as well.
i always check out SlickDeals they always have posts about SD Cards.
In general Amazon looks like the best place, iIve seen 32gig class 10 for about $28-35.
Ending up ordering this http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007KFXIDE?psc=1 , 21 bucks on Prime was a good deal. Great reviews and seems it performs better than it's "class 4" spec.
Looked at some of the class 10's but prices and reviews were all over the place. Was just wondering if any sales were going on, knowing my luck I get this and tomorrow there will be a 64gb somewhere for 20 bucks on clearance lol

There is at least comment on the ebay feedback stating that they are fake, and only 30 GB. I'm not too sure if I'd risk it.

$42.99 today only as well. I'm inpatient so I swung by Best Buy and they priced matched it since they are sold by Amazon, not a third party seller. New 64GB card works great in my Digital SLR camera.

I bought 2 SanDisk 64GB Micro SDXC Ultra cards from Amazon around the first of December for only $40 each with free shipping!! Awesome speeds and just an awesome all around card! Definitely a big upgrade from my 2 SanDisk 32GB Micro SDHC Class 4 cards that I was using!!
So to anyone who's looking to pick up a SanDisk 64GB Micro SDXC Ultra card, just keep checking Amazon and Best Buy websites because this card is bound to be on sale again!! Just be VERY CAREFUL if shopping on eBay for them!!! There are more fakes on eBay than there are legit cards!! Personally, I will never buy ANY kind of storage card from eBay, no matter who the seller is. I shop on eBay quite often too, just not for storage cards.....
