As far as I know, those prices are about ten dollars more than what I can get EIII for at Sim Lim, easily. OP selling 4GB for about $54 or lesser and $85 for 8GB.

Thats good pricing...as long it has the official vector magnetics sticker then doesnt matter where you bought it.

 

[SabaDen]

Got mine, 8gb, from SLS for $7x.oo

OP is definately selling cheaper than that. Best Bargains is also selling way cheaper than that, at least $20 off that price 'cause i just got it recently from them.

if u guys wanna get the cheapest deal, go to the price list section of Hardware Zone and download the pricelist of Best Bargains. They offer the best price for memory products.

Does Best Bargains have the Vector Magnetics sticker? Because I believe they don't.

 

[rendition]

Oh yes, I forgot to mention that OP's stocks have Vector Magnetics sticker.

 

[Lenscapes]

Best Bargain sandisk doesn't have vector's sticker.
why not wait till IT show, 12th to 15th March, if not urgent.

i'm sorry .. but OP refers to ? Orient Photo?

 

[poondq]

erm what are vector stickers?

 

[raghnall]

If I'm not wrong Best Bargain parallel imports the Sandisk. Best Bargain offers 5 years shop warranty, unlike Vector Magnetics which offers lifetime warranty. Is the $20-$30 lower price tag worth it? You decide.

Yes. It's Orient Photo.

erm what are vector stickers?

It's essentially a sticker on the black Sandisk box which serves as a proof of purchase of Sandisk products that brought in by Vector Magnetics.

 

[Randius]

erm what are vector stickers?

The sticker means the card enjoys local warranty and the warranty service is provided by Vector Magnetics, the authorised distributor for SanDisk. Without the sticker, it simply means if the card is spoilt and even if you have the receipt, you are not entitled to warranty claims.

Best Bargain doesnt sell Extreme III SDHC, only Compact Flash.

Oops! Errr ... mine is a CF card.

Try AP at SLS. They do sell memory cards at competitive prices and a genuine.

 

[Tachyon]

Just a side note, my Sandisk thumbdrive crashed some years ago and after writing an email to Sandisk in US, they sent a replacement via airmail without any hesitation. Of course, they asked for the defective thumb drive back and I sent it back to them for a small postage fee.

Not sure if they still do it now?
