Nope, unless it makes you to use a little force to put it in
Do I still stand a chance of using my phone perfectly as it was "'supposed to be used originally if I had used all original stuff since the beginning"' ??
Yes you will, don't worry, it's just a little "mechanical problem" you've just confronted

btw my friend has a 16gb ms pro duo with a sticker. (he gets some of the rejects from the sony factory in korea cause his uncle works there, eg his psp has a gash down the umd drive door, but it doesn't affect playing.)

Thanks.. That was reassuring. I couldn't go as the concerned people weren't working at that mobile shop today.. I will let you know how it goes when I meet them.

Ok.. He managed to upset me. That means trouble.
Now, he says I'll have to buy something in exchange for the goods I am returning, for the same value.
This is what I'm gonna do. He either has to agree to exchange the M2 card (the fake bugger) and USB cable (which I guess has become loose, bloody thing) for a SE J110i (I'll tell you what I'm gonna do with it, if I do get hold of it) which costs the same ~INR 1200 (~US$25), or prepare to meet me in court (I am not joking, there is a consumer court here .. which I am talking about).
I am anyways planning to go ahead and buy myself a genuine M2 card and a DCU-60 from a Sony Center. This will cost me INR 2000 (~US$42). I do not want to risk losing data in the future.
Will keep you posted!

Ok. Surprises.
I decided to go get the exchange done yesterday, got caught in the rain, heavy floods everywhere (but my trusty Honda Dio never broke down  !!). I had to abort the mission.
I went to the shop today, along with my Dad (like a team). Surprisingly, the staff there were very courteous and cool. They simply offered to replace the fake M2 card and the DCU-60 with the Sony originals (in packing, with warranty) for the extra amount (INR 800 ~US$17), even made note of my address and promised to deliver the items personally at my residence by Tuesday (as Sony is closed here on Sat, Sun and on Monday because of the Diwali festival).
Let's wait and see.

Interesting turn of events.
Since I was caught up with work (I am now on off after one whole week of non stop work), my dad had gone to the shop for getting the replacements.
The dealer tried to exchange the fake M2 for a Sandisk memory card. I spoke to the guy over the phone and told him "I asked for Sony" His reply was astonishing "Sandisk IS Sony!" to which I replied "Sandisk and Sony are two different companies!" and that was all.
He refunded the money for the data cable and the M2 card, for some INR 50 (~US$1) less. Ha! I at least managed to dispose off those accessories after a month and a half!
Now, I'm going out to buy some genuine Sony accessories

You sure it was US$1 or US$10 ?
Cause in my country you can only buy a cheap fake screen protector with US$1 ?
Refunding data cable and fake M2 may give you at least US$5 ?

Ok,
I went and bought an M2 card from a Sony outlet and a DCU-60 cable from a Sony Ericsson service centre.
Finally, the genuine one!
Relieved! What an ordeal this was! But it was some learning!
Thanks to everyone!!
