After bitter experience where ebay is concerned, I now operate the following policy "If it looks too good to be true it probably is"
I have no doubt they will be only too pleased to refund you your purchase price of £1.99 when you are unhappy, but it will cost you the postage to and from China to get it! better to buy it from a reputable online store trust me it will be much cheaper in the long run. |

Actually i wouldnt be surprised if it were quite genuine,i but remember, this size of card is almost certainly gonna be unuseable soon with th introduction of th smaller size in th P1 ETC, just wondering if th new micro cards come with adaptors to use in P990, thus extending the life of the purchase. |

The M2's we sell at Vodafone come with both adaptors. I'm guessing if you get offical Sony ones they will too!

£21.99 for postage. I would report them for fee evasion.

I have noticed recently on ebay that some buyers give neg feedback when they recieve goods say £20 buy it now & £20 P&P, they recieve the item, see that the post is £3.50 & then leave negative, well although low item price & very high P&P is against ebay rules as stated by previous poster it often is a way of evading final valuation fee by sellers, but i would like to make a point, if people dont like the stated P&P charge, then just don't buy it, i have often sold an item for say £90 with a £15 P&P charge the postage may only cost £4 but i have to wrap the dam thing up & drive to the post office & que up which often takes up an hour of my time & £16 as a "Packaging" (its what the second P stands for) charge is perfectly acceptable.
I have not recieved Negs for it but it makes me wonder if people think P&P just stands for "Post" costs.
Although at Chinese currency rates you could probably send a CAR for £20

Postage is more expensive than the item itself   !

I'd be very careful - and avoid sellers such as this where possible, as many sellers do this to either evade ebay fees, or save themselves if something goes wrong, as many sellers only refund the price minus P&p cost, so if you need a refund, you may well get only your £1.99 back....

How to spot fake cards
The fake cards will store all your media but for other things like file transfer and when using Disc2Phone you might have problems.
They also might not be compatible with USB mem card readers.
Good luck!
