Wandered to this website offering Sandisk products on sale here.

What do you guys think of that price?

It's on sale at an online store in UK. Do you think I can get fake products in UK?

Yes you can, when I was in the UK, most stores where I bought electronic components or PC components especially memory sticks and cards, some of them turned out to be those China "fake" ones. Double check and confirm with them and ask them about a return policy in the event if you find their products to be of poor quality.

Thanks for the tip! Most probably will buy one and check it out. If it's a genuine one, might buy more. tongue.gif

Are you sure? I checked Compuzone pricing and is selling for RM200. Maybe that price not updated.

However, it is guaranteed original with sealed package in a box. Contents are Extreme III CF card. plastic box for 1 CF, cloth bag for 2CFs, RescuePro mini CD, license key for Capture One LE and other documents.

Is this the same as you get in Malaysia? Which shop is selling for RM160?

I see. RM169 shipped. At current exchange rate, I'm getting it for RM126 shipped. A difference of RM43 per piece. I'm saving more than 25% per piece. I think this is considered quite a big saving for Malaysian standards.

Anyway, thanks for the information. It's time for me to buy a few more. rclxm9.gif

You need to factor in the shipping costs. For Adorama, it is USD6.95, around RM24, so the total cost will be around RM146. Still more expensive than the one I found. Furthermore, I'm not in US.

Buying online is not just about looking as the sale price. You need to add shipping costs if any for the total deal. For US, you need to factor in taxes also if applicable.
