Bought mine off ebay for $64 w/ free shipping (8 days from china iirc), and it turned out to be genuine (packaging, capacity, benchmarks). Prices have since increased a bit, as you've noted.
Amazon is selling the same card for $99, if you don't want to wait.
EDIT (links):
I bought from this ebay seller (sinceritytrading) who's got 76,000 feedback. Price has increased to $72. All other top-sellers are charging a similar amount. supply/demand has changed in the last couple weeks.
same card @ Amazon for $99

That one you linked includes a USB reader.
I bought mine through Amazon for $77, has since come down though.

What was the cheapest this card ever sold for? I thought I read somewhere $50.00 but not entirely sure. if so Amazon has it for about $20 more and i might be willing to go for it.

The $50 one was for a class 6, which I picked up.
I haven't seen anything that low for class 10

Is class 10 really necessary? Will you notice the increased speed at all?

I doubt it, normally the sandisk are higher then any other, like the samsung class 10 shows 13meg/sec and the class 6 sandisk lists as 30meg/sec...Sure if you run a special test it might show faster, but for absolutely anything these phones can do, no I will put money nobody would ever notice

For music? Not really. May take a little longer to copy music to the card.
Photos? If you're using the rapid shot then yes.

This is exactly why I want the fastest card available. I often move GBs of music around between the phone, external hard drives, and my laptop. Hopefully a class 10 card will make it as fast as possible.

for anyone looking for deals go to

easy way to keep track of deals.

Class 10 for music?
I got absolutely zero replies at this post, but I plan to try a Class 10. I don't know what class that Sandisk is, but the pkg said it did 20MB/sec. Class 10 is 10. So I don't know what to think.

Is that 20MB read speed or write speed?
Class 10 is 10MBsec write. Read speeds are generally double of what the write speed.

Have used a variety of "class" uSD cards in various items for a while. For me, the "sweet spot" for read/write speed and data transfer integrity is Class 6. And stay with trusted known brands from reputable sources. For me that's SanDisc IMHO.
Bought a 64GB Class 6 on Amazon for my SGT7.7 for $70....dealer sent a Class 10 claiming a better deal. After I explained why I wanted to RMA for a Class 6.....they swapped me without question.
YMMV

If I am not mistaken, that is a standard SDHC, and not the micro SDHC that our phones require.
I got this one and works fine:

There are a couple of off-brand class 6 cards that have shown up on ebay and Amazon called TopRam and 3C Pro. Anyone have experience with these?
I am familiar with the usual suspects (i.e. Sandisk, Kingston, Patriot, A-Data, etc). but was wondering if there have been any positive reviews with the ones above since then do tend to run substantially cheaper.

The card you linked is SDHC, not microSDHC, won't fit. Wish you could get microSDHC class 6 for that price.

If you're lucky to have Micro Center stores in your area, their house brand 16GB microSD card is not bad at all. For $34, you get a card marked as class 2. But I've tested mine on my PC and its write speed is around 7 MB/s and read speed is around 14 MB/s, practically a class 6 card! No wonder this card always seems to be out of stock quick.
dang before when i checked it it was a micro sdhc weird

i know what class means. There have seen a few reviews stating 6+ writing. Sandisk is about as as good a quality chip that you can get so paying less and getting quality is a win win.

I tried my luck with a TopRam 16 GB class 4, and I have transferred a little over 8 gb of files onto it and use it daily with no complaints.
I purchased mine on Buy.com because it was a little cheaper there a few months ago when I ordered it.

I have a class 2 Sandisk card running A2SD2 and using 720p with no problems or lag on either.
AS far as I know the class 4 by kingston is the highest class 32gb micro that is currently available.
I agree with chaz. I purchased a cheap 32GB from Hong Kong via eBay and it was garbage! As always, caveat emptor.
Just bought 200 of them
Yea the 32gb card for under 40 bucks is a scam no doubt........or a once in a lifetime deal...Verizon has the 32 gb card for 49.99 for 2 hours and they got swamped with orders.
be carefull guys........there are lots of fake sandisk cards going around.. I personally have the 32GB Class 2 from Sandisk that i bought from Verizon and have no issues with it. My buddy bought a 16GB from bestbuy and it was only a 4GB.
Stay away! These cards are usually a much smaller 4 or 8GB card which has 32GB printed on it. The beautiful part is they are designed to appear to your OS as a real 32GB card, so everything will be all rainbows and lollipops at first... That is, until you start filling it and eventually end up going over the actual capacity of the card. What happens after that? Well let's just say it's not pretty.
Your data is not worth the risk.

Can anyone find a review or actual read/write rates on this card. I've searched Google but saw no reviews.
google.com/shopping
before anyone jumps to this there are 3C Pro class 4 cards on google, amazon has them for a hair more but less that 100$ and reviews are saying the transfer speeds are close to class 6. with a average of around 5.44.
also there is a brand called, TOPRAM that sells class 4 32gb as well as kingston.
im ordering 2 of the 3c pro's. they seem to have the highest performance ive seen in 32gb storage

Careful folks. Just read in another forum where a guy was advertising super cheap 32 Gig sd cards on eBay only to have his ad pulled down as being a fraud.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I bought 1 card from ebay and it was faked. After that I paid the higher dollar and got a guaranteed card. I have the sandisk card and and TBH the transfer speeds are about the same as they are on my class 4 16gb card.
I'm running the 32gb Sandisk class 2 purchased from Amazon for $75. Read speeds seem to be several mb/s faster than the stock 8gb card. I think it's a good value at this price.

I've been running this for a month or so, and it's fantastic. It's just what it says -- I ran some speed tests when I first got it, and it came up with something around 4.5 MB/sec write speed (didn't copy it down...should have). So basically it's a class 4 as promised. I picked it up when it first came out at newegg for $87.

Well, crap... My 32GB Wintec is in the mail right now. I hope it lasts longer than yours did.
So far, my Wintec 16GB has been working as advertised. As of right now, I would suggest it to anyone looking to upgrade their SD card.
I had to return 2 Wintec's b/c of poor performance. I Then tested a cheap Kingston and Sandisk (whch were both faster then the Wintec at most file sizes) but not where I wanted it to be. I have a a couple of high end cards for my dSLR but I didn't want to spend that much for my phone. I finally settled on Patriot LX for price performance.
If you have a Micro Center in your area you can pick up a "Micro Center Branded" MicroSD card there for dirt cheap.
I bought 2 8GB class 2 for $13.99 each and a 16GB Class 2 for $27.99
Heres the kicker. The supplier they get them from marks them as class 2 but they are Class 6.
All three cards have a write rate or 6+ MB/sec and a 13 MB/sec read. Tested on a 2 different windows machines and the SD Speed test app from the market.

Sandisk MicroSDHC 16gb Class 4 or 6 Recommendations?

I have the stock MicroSDHC card in my Evo at the moment.
I am looking to purchase a Sandisk microSDHC 16gb class 4 or 6 card.
Class 4 would most likely be fast enough for me.
I have been searching around but have heard alot about counterfeits, etc.
Looking to purchase in a blister card as this appears to be the best way to be assured you are purchasing a legit card.
Any recommendations are appreciated.
Kingston is an option as I have also read good things about it.
Again, Legitimacy is a top priority.

This is just my opinion but I only use a-data micro sdcards. The 2 class six cards I got for me and the wife have served me with apps2sd and since before I even had my g1. They are very reasonably priced on newegg.
I just find sandisk cards to be over priced imo. But to be sure you only get quality cards I would buy from either tigerdirect or newegg.

This one is well hidden in the depths of newegg; I bought and sounds like a great deal to me.

I'll research the a-data cards.
Are they better quality than the transcend cards?
I'm using a 32GB Class 10 from Wintec and it works great. Only ~$85 on NewEgg. With their free shipping, I ordered it Friday morning and got it Monday afternoon.
Wintec Class 10 16GB SDHC for around $27 from Tiger Direct... I can't imagine why you'd go 4 or 6...

Heard something about smart phones can't utilize the speeds that class 10 offers, or something to that effect. So it wasnt worth the extra money that a class 10 would cost.
But at the price you mentioned, the cost is a non factor. Just don't know the quality of Wintec vs. the rest.
I've got several WinTec cards - even have WinTec PC10666 (1333) memory in my desktop - always been happy with the quality.
As far as speed - I'm VERY new to the EVO so I can't speak to whether or not the phone can utilize the extra speed.. But as you mentioned - at that price, who cares... And I will say this - putting large amounts of stuff onto this card vs my older class 4's and 6's via computer is *way* faster.
You can utilize the speed by changing one value in your system files

[Q] Is it a best deal on ebay for 32GB Micro SDHC???

I just found an ebay.com seller listed a kingston 32gb micro sdhc (class 4) card for just $16 ...I dont whether its a genuine deal or not but till now has already sold more than 80 cards (within 12 hrs)....
here's the link http://cgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270781614305&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Last week I saw a similar deal (32gb kingston for $20) I purchased 3 .... although paypal refunded all my money today when i raised a claim but it's such a waste of time....
Can anybody confirm whether its a genuine deal? ALso can anybody suggest a best deal (with worldwide shipping) for buying 32gb micro sdhc class 4 (or 10) card
Nope they are fake. when you plug it in it will show 32gb but in reality they are 1-2 gb cards. I once bought a 16gb flash drive which turned out to be 2gb. never buy flash memory on ebay esp from china. Buy from trusted sellers only.
the money for the "16gb flashdrive" was refunded to me.
Edit:
Same seller look at this auction:
http://cgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270781633716#ht_1367wt_1139
How the hell can a 256 gb flash drive cost 9 euros.
If anyone did get their flash memory on ebay and its always corrupting, Run a test with a program.

If he sends the same kingston card as shown in the pic.... is thr any chance of gettin fake ...
I hv seen many loose or unbranded cards as fake ....hv u encountered any fake card in kingston's retail packing?
Yes they are fake. Fake packaging. Made mostly for schmucks like you who think they are real because of the box they come in. If you put a Lamborghini logo and a ford, Its still just a crappy ford.
Anyone can duplicate packaging even if it has holograms. Everything is easily duplicated. Also the card they state is a class 4, Which I doubt. Its most likely a class 1. Either way Class 4 is useless. Get at least a class 6 card or class 10 which is best. If you care at all about watching movies or recording in HD onto the card.
LESSON OF THE DAY:
IF IT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE.... IT IS!
Thanks everybdy... anyway the listing removed by ebay ...
Mods can close this thread...
If you need a 32GB class 4 - THIS is the best deal.
I have got the same one, and I can guarantee it is genuine. And I am having no problems whatsoever.

Recording and playback will be fine with a class 2 card. You certainly don't need anything faster than class 4. The only advantage a class 6 or 10 card has would be faster transfers between your pc and the card.

Thanks so much. Saw it now. Immediately ordered. I had purchased one fake 32GB card from Sandisk card and will be returning now.
Love this forum.

I have both...I can claim without a doubt my Class 10 32GB Patriot is a lot faster than my 16GB Class 4 Sandisk.
Where do I notice it most besides PC transfers? Media scanner.... the 32GB scans more than twice as fast as the 16GB on reboots after changes. Well worth the $86.

So it scans a bit quicker and costs nearly twice the price of the class 4....
I'd rather have the extra money in my pocket and wait a few extra seconds for the scanner to finish.....

It scans far more than a "bit quicker". It scans faster then the internal SD card!!
No matter.....I paid $600 for a phone...and am flashing custom ROMS and Kernels and donating to the developers and this site supporting them for more speed with stability, I am not going to cut corners in the same arena to save $40 on a lesser SD Card. I want to get the most out of the handset on all fronts. In that regard the class 10 card makes sense.
Then again people will pay $600+ for a handset, $300+ a year for a data plan and balk at paying $3 for a helpful app or donating to a developer. Strange world this mobile phone world indeed.
Not to sound dumb, but how much is "Rs. 2500"?

Try searching 3C Pro 32GB Class 6 micro SD. I bought one of ebay it was from TOPRAM. 3C has 10mbit speed and is a real Class 6 and 32GB I have one myself and it is legit. Made in Korea. Not China like SanDisk. Doesn't fail. HIGH TRANSFER SPEEDS!

Nope they are fake. when you plug it in it will show 32gb but in reality they are 1-2 gb cards. I once bought a 16gb flash drive which turned out to be 2gb. never buy flash memory on ebay esp from china. Buy from trusted sellers only.
the money for the "16gb flashdrive" was refunded to me.
Edit:
Same seller look at this auction:

Just want to say that remember that Hong Kong is not China even if they are connected and the people look alike. Hong Kong has been a British ruled colony until 1995. China's government tried to make villagers make steel made in the villagers backyards. Do the math.
HK>China
