Post 8GB kingston sdhc class 6

Just bought one 8GB kingston class 6 for 24 dollars, self collect, brand new in packaging.

I did not know the card has gone down so much, just to my surprise.

Tot if anyone is keen, send me a PM and I will give the contact.

I have never try scandisk extreme 3. The present class 6 kingston is faster than my old 2Gig kingston bought in 2006 when I got my K10 D. Saw also the latest being 16G for kingston.

Seller who sold online said the company is stated there and lifetime warranty one has to contact the person in charge. Its better to get from Best Bargain with shop frontage for security purposes and still cheaper by 50 cents

plus one for best bargain!

no vested interest in that shop. i just hope they keep up their way of doing biz and not get complacent or greedy. i bought my laptop memory (had it installed for extra 5 bux too cos i'm tech idiot ) and CF cards from there also

anyway, memory is dirt cheap now unless u are looking for older laptop ram like DDR. DDR2 and above is quite cheap. ditto for memory cards

The good thing about SD cards is your family can buy it for you, pop it into an envelope and sent it to you for the additional price of a postage..defintely much lesser than pounds!
I bought my Hitachi 4GB Class 2 for S$64 at a PC show last year!
Prices fall faster than the stock market now...

35 pounds is around S$80+ I think? For that kind of price, your family can afford to lose 2 shippings and still be cheaper than buying it in UK!

that's true..

but it's alright i guess, i usually have one 4gb and one 2gb spare (if i do not bring my ir cam) when travelling.. and a 20gb photodrive.

if all fail, just emo and refuse to shoot

guess it can wait until summer, maybe by then 16gb extreme iii by sandisk will be $20

I just thought of sharing with you. I ordered the exact same card over amazon for under 10 quid, with free shipping.
I would try to hold back my purchases until I get back to Singapore.
