Faketastic!
Beware cheap memory cards is a very useful piece of advice .
They are also unbranded so even more suspicious .
Not saying anything wrong but if you by cheap memory cards from ebay you will know the score i am afraid .

really i havnt purchased 1 yet but was thinking about it although i asked if i can collect with it being local, maybe i should try 1 out and let you guys no what there like?
I purchased a 16gb class 10 joyflash or something like that from ebay, it would barely transfer over 3.2mb/s and then it died that same day, my advice don't buy cheap cards.
yea i bought a cheap 32 of ebay from hong kong. fine at first then after 2 gb phone says card blank or unrecognisd format. ill get a 16gig sandisk for 15 quid of amazon at least it will work
all that glitters is not gold, give them a wide birth my friend.
Sounds to cheap 32 gb cards start from £50 there is no way he is making money on them if they are original but I assume fakes cause he gets them cheaper than £18.47
I had a cheap (fake) 8GB Memory Stick Duo for my PSP from eBay, it stored a whomping 10MB!
lol yeah think ill give it a miss, if most people say there no good ill agree, how come 16gb are nicely priced £15+ but 32gb is whooping £50+

Even cards being offered at £50 require an inordinate amount of inquiry.
As an example ~ last week I sent an email to an online retailer named Memorycardzoo.
The retailer is advertising a Sandisk 32GB MicroSD card as being Class 4 for £55.99 (see here).
My inquiry was to confirm this was indeed a Class 4 and not the slower Class 2.
The retailer replied immediately confirming the cards were correct in that they were Class 4.
I then sent a further message informing them that a lot of online retailers were advertising something that clearly was not as stated.
Again they came back very politely and professionally reiterating not to worry the cards were accurately advertised as Class 4.
As such I placed my order for said card.
Today I got back home to find a small package that had the card within.
On opening the package the card is indeed a Sandisk 32GB card BUT it is NOT a Class 4 but the slower Class 2.
I have just sent them an email asking them to explain their actions.
In the meantime I would advise anyone not to deal with Memorycardzoo until I have an answer.
I shall reply here when such reply is received.
Beards.
I just bought this for £13.99 worth a try class 4 and you can even check on kingston china to see if they are genuine hurry though they are selling like hot cakes.

So you can confirm that you bought and received this card from these people, and that what you received wasn't up to expectations? What was the problem? Was the capacity smaller than advertised? Was it too slow? Was it just a fake, through and through?
I just ordered one before you replied. I wonder if I can cancel an order now!
Not sure if it was these people but same card. worked fine at first 31gb available, stopped working after about 2 gig now nothing will even recognize the card-cant even format it. Make sure you make regular back ups of anything on card, i lost some stuff. Mabey mine was fake i wish you luck-ill never buy cheap hongkong again.
WOW great find, bought one too, half the price of the fake on I bought for 26£ and am getting my money back
they look genuine to me, so i got 1 too, if they come and there not ill request refund lol.
They sold 199 of them with no neg feedback so to me its a good buy
Hehe that's why I grabed two

Avoid the Ebay sellers, the fakes seem to turn into mini coasters in no time. Read here for more info.
There may be other non-fake deals out there, but coupon codes and rebates may be the best avenues to search.
I still don't know why they just don't have sd card slots on phones, I mean you could easily fit them in a phone.

My mistake, Amazon always throws me for a loop with similar deals...but manages to slip full size sdhc cards in there. $149 is the cheapest I have seen for a 32GB MicroSD.
Seems there are not that many out there below $200 from reliable sources. I'd only suggest Ebay if it's someone you've bought from prior and have faith that they're an honest seller.
This looks like a good deal from a reputable company:
http://www.provantage.com/sandisk-sdsdq-032g-a11m~7SNDK2V2.htm
I'm gonna wait for Class 6 myself, could be a while though
mine is in OH if u see my above post ull see pretty fast they shipped it for 149 total no shipping charge and they shipped DHL international express so not bad i should have it tomoro or next day
edit: DHL is out for delivery cant wait to get my 32gb then i can put most of my music on finally

Ouch.. I am 95% sure that you just bought a fake. You may want to try to contact San Disk to try to verify authenticity.
Here is a wiki that shows the physical differences between a real card and a fake. If you are able to confirm that the card is fake you may be able to get your $150 back, especially if you paid with a credit card. Although the physical differences are negligible, I have had all three fake Hong Kong sd cards that I bought turn up as duds after 3-6 months of use.
Yeah the fake ones are all over the place due to the hong kong shuffle (where they sell a factory rather than refit it to produce new products). QC goes down but realistically they are the same product. But they do tend to fail and warranties are non-existent, so watch out for that.
But the comment about waiting for a class 6 card... here was my deal. when you read the reviews about the different classes of cards you will find that most of the time the sandisk and really high-end name brand class 2 cards will out perform the cheap class 6 cards. Yeah yeah I know they are given those ratings based on their speeds but in the real world a lot of those class 2 cards will get 8-12mbps speeds in their real world reviews by cnet and others. Just throwing that out there. I myself will stick with class 2 since i couldnt even notice a tiny bit of speed difference in both my hero and evo when switching to class 6 from class 2.

regardless, you should do a check to verify its authenticity. there is a website (in red text and white bg- dunno the name) that you should go see.
DL their software and run it to ensure its not some 8GB hidden with 32GB written on it to cover up.
ummmmm
Ok you can keep spending money on ridiculously overpriced SD cards or you could buy them from Newegg.com I just bought a 32gb Kingston sdhc card Class 6 for 125..... I've bought lots of computer parts from them over the years and they are a great electronic parts site.
I was looking into cheap 32 gb cards and found a website called DHGate, a chinese bulk supplier.
Anyways...
Link
I was thinking of buying around 10 and reselling 8 or 9 online/locally.
What does everyone think?
Most likely fake, try ebay instead. At least you will get ebay/paypal protection

I've purchased from them before. There a wholesaler so you're right you have to buy in bulk. There just like Alibaba. Those are only class 2 cards too. I found lowest price 32gb > class 2 for $72 on NewEgg and those others are $188 for 10. I would turn them over for $50 a pop and make a killin'.
Why not make some cash I was thinking the same thing about the battery and charger thread ha ha.

Hey guys, I would read this:

It looks like nothing but headaches from this company. Also looks like most/all stuff is counterfeit.

That's strange. I ordered a bunch of memory from them before and I received it no problem. Of course it takes almost a month to reach you because of customs. I'll make sure not to do business with them again after seeing that. Thanks for the heads up.
I just ordered one of these today:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260631752949
At best it's an incredible deal. At worst, I find out what it's like to go through the Paypal protection policy.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, however, for $21 and a guarantee from both Ebay and Paypal...you really have nothing to lose.
The model number they quote on the page is the model number of the actual Sandisk chip, though they could have easily pulled that information from the website for their fake product. They also say it is a class 4 (yay!)
I'm thinking of trying them out just for the hell of it!
Anything coming from china is fake. Thats why everything they sell is so cheap. If you think its real then your on crack. Dont buy anything from china.
amazon usually has pretty good deals on sdcardds
Either way, I don't feel I have much to lose at 20 bucks. Even if PayPal falls through, my credit union will refund me outright because it's under 25 bucks and I wouldn't even have to return it.
So how would we be able to tell if this is fake anyway?
I just got mine in the mail. Will update with transfer speeds and impressions once I get home tonight.

If you bought one of those $30 32gb MicroSD cards it is likely fake. It may appear to be 32gb when it is placed in your pc/phone but it will not correctly store data over its true capacity. If you could please use h2testw (google it) and run the full test to verify the authenticity of your card. I bought a Sandisk 32gb MicroSD from expansys and verified it using this program.
I would recommend you guys don't waste money on these cards as counterfeit items are huge in China. 32gb of the memory used inside these cards would probably be close to if not more then the cost you are paying. So apply a little common sense here.
Ive never had any issues with china. Bought a kingston cruzer 200 128gb usb 2.0 drive for 29 dollars and it works as needed. 19 mb/s write speed and 25 read. Its a beast. And yes Ive tested its full capacity on multiple occasions. Works great.
As to your question, I have download your test software (h2testw) and am running it now. Will report when finished.
Initial tests with sdcard test on evo reports it as class 2, 3 mb/s write (not great, but it is large enough to compensate), but still getting a 12 mb/s read.
Once you get over 2gb of stuff on the card report back if the files are broken or not.
I have heard that they show as 32gb, but once you pass 2gb the files become broken, and if you format the card it formats to 2gb.
It's a rip off.
at 9 gb so far on the h2test2 program. no issues.
Where exactly did you order that card from though? Was it the ebay link provided in this thread?
Has anyone tried any of the generic 32 GB cards from ebay? I was looking into getting one.
I bought this one...more of a trusted source

I just bought the same one! You can get 10 dollars off (to make it $39.99) if you buy it with a new account. Use the promo code NEWCUSTOMER10. You have to add something small to the order to get it over 50. I went to Newegg gear and added a Newegg wristband, as it was the cheapest item with free shipping.
I wouldn't buy any cards off Ebay. There's as much incentive to sell rigged cards as there is demand for high capacity. My roommate just bought a 32 GB off Ebay and he got lucky. Make sure that the seller offers returns and when you get it immediately run h2testw.
I just have one question for the OP..
Are you feelin lucky?

My wife and I picked up Patriot sd's from Micro Center... I think they were $39 they work pretty awesome. Price wasnt bad at all compared to online prices. it seems like it is luck of the draw on the Generic ebay ones so we stayed away from those.
Fakes are extremely common for flash memory on ebay, especially on any kind of "OMG WHAT A DEAL!" type of things. The fakes are usually a 2GB card that's had a 3 painted on it in front of the 2, and hacked firmware to make it appear to be 32. But when you try to fill it, it won't let you, because it's still just a 2GB card.
Basically, if it's substantially below the going rate from reputable sources (looks to be roughly $60-80), you're going against probably 80-90% odds that you'll get a fake.
I made the mistake of buying one and I can put 32 gb worth in info on there but when I put it in the phone it can't access it.
I wouldn't buy from anyone but a trusted source and right now I wouldn't buy one for less than about $50.00.
In a year or two they'll be going for $25.00, but right now anything that cheap is bound to be a fake that doesn't actually hold anywhere near 32GB.

true story
16gb class 10 (14.8 formatted)- ~$35
32gb class 10 (formatted size unknown)- ~$82
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004H8FTCK
i bought the 16gb c10 and it shipped fast and works perfectly for me. it is a real card, not a rip off too. sdtools (i think its called) for android said it has a r=10-12.5mb/s w=20-25mb/s or something in that range (been a while since i uninstalled the app). never had a problem and i highly recommend it, the 16gb one atleast since thats the only one i can speak for.
Patriot class 6 32gb micro SD card from Fry's for $69 about 3 months ago.
It's legit, not like the fakes on Ebay. Google it. You will find out the truth. Even if you pay near to the going price, you run the risk of getting a fake. IMHO, it's just not worth the hassle.
Got one it works pretty good..

Got to be careful with SD cards on eBay. I got a fake. I tested it with a program called htest or something like that. Seller did refund my money before I sent back the cards which was quite nice of him. I ended up biting the bullet and bought 2 from best buy.

I just found an ebay.com seller listed a kingston 32gb micro sdhc (class 4) card for just $16 ...I dont whether its a genuine deal or not but till now has already sold more than 80 cards (within 12 hrs)....
here's the link http://cgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270781614305&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Last week I saw a similar deal (32gb kingston for $20) I purchased 3 .... although paypal refunded all my money today when i raised a claim but it's such a waste of time....
Can anybody confirm whether its a genuine deal? ALso can anybody suggest a best deal (with worldwide shipping) for buying 32gb micro sdhc class 4 (or 10) card
Nope they are fake. when you plug it in it will show 32gb but in reality they are 1-2 gb cards. I once bought a 16gb flash drive which turned out to be 2gb. never buy flash memory on ebay esp from china. Buy from trusted sellers only.
the money for the "16gb flashdrive" was refunded to me.
Edit:
Same seller look at this auction:

If he sends the same kingston card as shown in the pic.... is thr any chance of gettin fake ...
I hv seen many loose or unbranded cards as fake ....hv u encountered any fake card in kingston's retail packing?
Yes they are fake. Fake packaging. Made mostly for schmucks like you who think they are real because of the box they come in. If you put a Lamborghini logo and a ford, Its still just a crappy ford.
Anyone can duplicate packaging even if it has holograms. Everything is easily duplicated. Also the card they state is a class 4, Which I doubt. Its most likely a class 1. Either way Class 4 is useless. Get at least a class 6 card or class 10 which is best. If you care at all about watching movies or recording in HD onto the card.
LESSON OF THE DAY:
IF IT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE.... IT IS!
Thanks everybdy... anyway the listing removed by ebay ...
Mods can close this thread...
If you need a 32GB class 4 - THIS is the best deal.
I have got the same one, and I can guarantee it is genuine. And I am having no problems whatsoever.

Recording and playback will be fine with a class 2 card. You certainly don't need anything faster than class 4. The only advantage a class 6 or 10 card has would be faster transfers between your pc and the card.

I have both...I can claim without a doubt my Class 10 32GB Patriot is a lot faster than my 16GB Class 4 Sandisk.
Where do I notice it most besides PC transfers? Media scanner.... the 32GB scans more than twice as fast as the 16GB on reboots after changes. Well worth the $86.

So it scans a bit quicker and costs nearly twice the price of the class 4....
I'd rather have the extra money in my pocket and wait a few extra seconds for the scanner to finish.....

It scans far more than a "bit quicker". It scans faster then the internal SD card!!
No matter.....I paid $600 for a phone...and am flashing custom ROMS and Kernels and donating to the developers and this site supporting them for more speed with stability, I am not going to cut corners in the same arena to save $40 on a lesser SD Card. I want to get the most out of the handset on all fronts. In that regard the class 10 card makes sense.
Then again people will pay $600+ for a handset, $300+ a year for a data plan and balk at paying $3 for a helpful app or donating to a developer. Strange world this mobile phone world indeed.
Not to sound dumb, but how much is "Rs. 2500"?

Try searching 3C Pro 32GB Class 6 micro SD. I bought one of ebay it was from TOPRAM. 3C has 10mbit speed and is a real Class 6 and 32GB I have one myself and it is legit. Made in Korea. Not China like SanDisk. Doesn't fail. HIGH TRANSFER SPEEDS!

Nope they are fake. when you plug it in it will show 32gb but in reality they are 1-2 gb cards. I once bought a 16gb flash drive which turned out to be 2gb. never buy flash memory on ebay esp from china. Buy from trusted sellers only.
the money for the "16gb flashdrive" was refunded to me.
Edit:
Same seller look at this auction:
http://cgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270781633716#ht_1367wt_1139
How the hell can a 256 gb flash drive cost 9 euros.
If anyone did get their flash memory on ebay and its always corrupting, Run a test with a program.

Just want to say that remember that Hong Kong is not China even if they are connected and the people look alike. Hong Kong has been a British ruled colony until 1995. China's government tried to make villagers make steel made in the villagers backyards. Do the math.
HK>China

I bought a 32GB Micro SD with adapter, case and USB reader last month for $30. It's the same as in the attached link. Not sure about the quality, but thought why not give it a try.

*Never* buy a memory card from a Chinese ebay seller expecting the card to perform at the advertised speeds and/or advertised capacity.
I got burned 3 times buying a 32gb memory microSD card from ebay. All of the them came from different chinese ebay sellers and all cards were only 1 gb. I complained to ebay and said these were fake microSD cards. The ebay wanted me to ship back the cards to the seller. Since, the cards were at a low price of less than $20 with free shipping. Shipping it back would cost me $24. I didn't make sense for me to ship it back. I just declared it as a bad purchase and suck it up.
with the 3 bad purchase, I lost $60. I could have bought this from amazon instead:

or this
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004G60AD6/ref=oh_o03_s00_i00_details
since, this is 16GB, maybe it is the real deal
Just ordered mine.thanx

I was thinking the exact same thing when i came in this thread.
Please do report back once you guys receive them, who knows they may be the real deal
I will keep you guys posted when the item is received. I thought the price was kinda low so I took a chance. I did read through all the feedback on the seller and according to the feedback the product is legit. One of the responses said they tested the card and it was 32GB as advertised. The only negative reviews was that it took time to arrive, the other said it wasn't proper packaging. But nothing about the actual MicroSD card not being 32GB size as advertised.
Again, you can't go completely by the feedback, but at least it gives you a starting point when the seller has good reviews.
Worse case I am out $30. Sucks if I am but not a huge loss.
