Hey guys, anyone know where to get cheap microSDHC? I bought a 4gb one for $15 including shipping but have lost it and they don't sell it for that anymore. Any help? Anyone got a used one that wants to upgrade and willing to let go for cheap?

Ebay or Amazon

Yeah I would try ebay but I am tired of the fake memory cards that they are selling all the time. Even from Ebayer's who have almost 100% feedback and tens of thousands of feedback, I still received fake memory cards. This is because people don't know it is fake until they fill their memory cards up later and it doesn't work. I recently bought a 2GB memorystick pro duo and it could only hold 1GB and then the whole card became corrupted when I filled it past 1GB.
look no further then here:

Friends,
I found following in SuperMediaStore:
http://www.supermediastore.com/pqi-...E-001-1954&utm_campaign=cp_mey_081215Inactive
Use Coupon code: SUPER30 to cut it for $22.95 with free shipping. Is it good?
Edit: My bad, I was just excited to got the link but seems it is regular SD.
Thanks
That link goes to a regular SD card, not MicroSD... a decent price for a class 6 card no doubt, but not useful for raphael
I have not seen MicroSD bigger than 8gb. Do they exist?
Best buy had 16gb in stock in eastgate ohio for 99.99
16gb at Amazon.com is $60ish.
I bought a pair of 4GB marked SD cards from supermediastore, that were only 1GB. They would not take provide RMA, or refund, or send replacement. They kept saying to try them in another computer. On 4 computers and 3 cameras (that all read SDHC) they were 1GB cards.
Not saying that will happen with your purchase, but I'll never purchase from them. Btw, I still get spam email from them after requesting a few times to be removed from their mailing list.
hey people...posted this new thread because i want to know if any of you are in use with a 32gb micro sd card and wanna know how is the feel likes with the android builds...
i currently use kingston 8gb microsd card class 4...
thinking to upgrade to 32gb....
please give your opinions and suggstions!!
thanks...
EDIT:i just ordered a kingston 32gb micro sd class 2....
hope android build should run fine as my 8gb
You should be fine. I've been using a SanDisk 32GB MircoSDHC card for months now, without any problems at all.
Best to all,

If you buy a 32Gb card ensure that it is a good one and do not buy one from Ebay if it comes from China and only cost ~$15.00. That is total junk!!!

hahaha..yeah i saw cards like one you discribed...i already bought one it comes from hong kong and cost with shiping overall 60dollars!
its a kingston 32gb micro sdcard class 2..!!
i heard that sandisk cards is 3 times faster than kingstons... is that true?
When it comes, peel off the 32Gb sticker and you will find its a 2 or 4 Gb card. you can copy 32Gb onto it but it will be corrupted when you remove it from the pc...
Get your money back...

You can only wait until you get the card. I do hope that it works OK. However, just because mine did not turn out to be a good one, yours may. Good Luck. If it isn't, just get a refund from PayPal if you used them.
ok guys..thank you all very much..i ll post a reply when the card will arrive in my hands and let you inform if its fake or not
so see ya soon
Happened to me about three times before I got the message. Run a test when you receive it...

thanks..i'll do it for sure...the good thing is that the seller's name is very different from the one that i bought the 32gb sdcard
hi,
just don't forget to provide us some "where to buy" links please...
Here is hoping you got a good card. I did some researching and I can't find any 32GB class 2 cards by kingston. Seems they are all class 4. Wishing you luck.
Komputerbay MicroSDHC 32 gig class 6
is what I have in mine. It's pretty nice. No Komplaints so far.

damn...i made a research also..and is the same..i didnt find any class 2..as you mentioned they are all class 4 and some class 6!i will cntact to the seller and find a solution..otherwise i will open a case to inform on ebay that the seller sell fake one sdcards..
Just as a bit of further info on the ones which I bought off ebay - they did tend to be reasonably good at refunding the £$ - I think they seem to go off the idea that it's a better business model to avoid negative feedback. A lot of buyers don't check these cards (and USB drives) properly and think it's all good and follow up with good feedback. Sometimes you might have to negotiate a decent refund though but stick to your guns and follow through with your dispute (item not as described/counterfeit) if required.
In any event, good luck.
Got a 32GB Micro SD card from Ebay from Hong Kong as well, a month or so ago. The card took almost a month to arrive. When i got it I tested the R/W speeds. They were awful. But, even so, i tried a consistency test. Of the 32GB of data copied, only 512 weren't corrupted. Basically, what the guy does is picks up faulty 512 MB MicroSD (faulty since they don't comply with Class 2 minimum requirements) and changes the Card information sector to inform the pc/device that it is 32GB when it really is 512. I confronted the buyer with this (had tons of positive reviews btw) and he said that he would refund me, and was sorry but it was an accident. I insisted he send me another card instead. A week later, i receive an email from ebay saying that this user had it's account compromised and that he seemed to be a known scammer. All great as you can see. Honestly, I will only buy again from Amazon or so...
Hopefully, the same won't happen to you. I felt so foolish... Particularly since I'm getting a PhD in Computer Science -_-'...

I don't believe there are any legitimate class 6 32gb cards available yet... I did a lot of research before buying mine and the best available so far from legitimate companys was class 4, so that what I went with. I got a class 4 32gb Kingston. And you're right, it doesn't look like Kingston released any class 2 versions, so make sure you thoroughly test your card. Its possible Kingston released class 2 cards for OEM purposes and never sold them retail, so they may be legitimate... but considering you bought it off eBay, I would have doubts its legitimate. Its best to buy flash memory from well known stores like newegg.

Also guys, before giving good feedback load the sd card with about 20Gb of data, remove the sd card then re-insert and see if the files are corrupt... I've found a few "32Gb sd cards" that will hold 32Gb of data and registers the files are still on the card BUT the info gets badly corrupted and disapears when you take out of the card reader.
Won't say ALL sellers are crooks on Ebay, but 99% definately are. Only advice would be to see if they have been a member for a long time, they don't seem to survive too long if they are crooks...

Does anyone have experience with this site? I am always a little hesitant to use sites I have never heard of before.

I bought something from them before and it was fine. I also ordered this card. I think it will be OK. Worst case is I have my credit card reverse the charge and report them for fraud. But I don't think it will go that far.
They're OK for cut-and-dried items (like a memory card), not for things that need hand-holding, as these liquidation merchants don't have much service to speak of. Shipping can be slow, between 1-2 weeks. They're known on the deals sites--FatWallet, SlickDeals, etc--and aren't fly-by-night.
I ordered one via PayPal, which goes through my CC. Sandisk C4 cards are more reliable than other brands' C10 variety.
I remembered when the 32GB was first released, about a year and a half ago. It was $200 for a Sandisk C2.
After picking up my new Galaxy S III (Garnet Red sexiness) a couple days ago I was in the market for a microSD card. Now, it's obvious that I could have saved a few dollars by buying online but I needed one ASAP and didn't want to have to wait for it to arrive. Usually that means the cost of purchasing at a local brick & mortar store would be significantly higher, so I scanned the Sunday sales ads to see what I was up against. The best deal I could find in the sale ads was a PNY 32GB class10 microSDHC @ Staples for $44.99 or a 16GB for $19.99. That was more than I wanted to pay so I stopped in at my local Best Buy because they sometimes have some great sale prices that are not even advertised. I found the same 32GB PNY card with the adapter for $34.99 on sale, which they had not advertised in the sale ad. If anyone is in the market and would rather pick one up locally like myself, the info is below.
PNY 32GB class10 microSDHC $34.99 + tax (cheapest I found online was $26.85 + $4.99 S/H = $31.84 @ Amazon)
Model # PSDU32G10TEFM1
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/PNY+Tec...Card/3026197.p?id=1218372338726&skuId=3026197
PS. Another reason I chose to buy locally is to have peace of mind in knowing the card is 100% genuine and not potentially fake.
meh, ive seen cheaper 32gb class10 sd's from reputable dealers
I've tried the pny brand and man was it horrible. I tried a 2gig on my old samsung gravity and when I had to format it it only showed 256mbs. And an 8gig I tried on my g1 kept corrupting itself.
