Looks a good price - Amazon are selling the 1GB for 37 quid at the moment. I paid 50 quid for one in January and thought I was getting a right bargain.

I got 2 x 2GB brand new cards for £77 on fleaBay. And they are official SONY ones!

EDIT: Just noticed, the cards I got are exactly the same as the ones on that site.

Cool, just got a 2GB Sony branded one from Ebay for £35, thanks Duder.
Whilst I was there I managed to pick up a 2GB SanDisk Ultra II SD card for my digital camera for recording video for £36.

My seller was xroom4u, but he`s not selling them at the moment but most sellers are pretty ok, just make sure that:

They have good feedback - obviously :)
Double check the P&P, `cos some are astronomical. Mine was £9.00 for first class (jiffy bag) but the item price itself was pretty cheap so it was fine.
Beware that some sellers don`t have stock in the UK and if you buy one that has to be imported you could be stung for customs charges.

Be interesting because most of the `too good to be true` ones are fakes.. :o but still work...
I got one a while back (not sure if it`s fake - not checked) but it still works..
do they look like this? Was the case sealed with `dots`?

We will pay the price but we will not count the cost..

Mine looked exactly like the one you linked to, came fully packaged, sealed with dots around the edge and hologram sticker on the outer packing.
I`ve tried it in my PSP and it seems to be OK.
I hadn`t thought it could be a fake, how can you tell?

Cheers

After googling it seems mine is a fake. I didn`t get the Sony warranty card in the package. I didn`t even realise there were fakes out there.
Oh well, I`ll see how long this lasts - looks like they have a shorter life span than the real pro duos.

Like I said, mine`s still fine (can`t remember the dots but THINK so) and gets a lot of use. It is 2GB - some people complain when they try more than 1GB it crashes.
Some interesting stuff here too.
The reason they get good feedback is probably because most people don`t know.. and leave feedback almost straight away.
