SD Cards from Hong Kong on Ebay - Anyone bought one?

[Ratpack]

I see these all over Ebay and at fairly decent prices. Anyone here bought one? Are they legit or would I really be taking a big risk?

Most of them are. But when the price is too good to be true, usually it is.

We just bought a BUNCH of cards on eBay.

We got a 1 GB SanDisk Ultra II SD card on for $59.00 including shipping, a 2 GB Sandisk Extreme III CF card for $110 including shipping.

We also bought cheap digital cameras for our kids and bought them some 64 MB Lexar SD cards for under $10 each including shipping. All in the USA!

I don't know what kind of deals you're looking for, but I thought these were pretty good deals! The deals from US sellers are out there, you just have to look harder for them!

I forgot to mention that the cards we purchased on eBay were all new in sealed packages, and were sellers with excellent feedback ratings.

then they should be fine.

If you're a Costco member, starting next week, they have a $10 off coupon for 1GB memory cards. The coupon is good any time next week starting on Monday, March 13th. They currently have the Sandisk Ultra II 1GB card listed on their website at $59.99, which is still a good price. Applying the coupon code brings it down to $50 + tax.

Thanks for the info.

Buy.com has the 1GB ultra II for 49.99 right now after rebate if anyone is interested.

FRYs blows ebay prices out of the water and return policy is decent when product is defective.

1gb 60x SD card. $39 out the door(not counting $20 mail in rebate).
$19 AFTER REBATE

And they have deals like this all time, sometimes better.
