Hi All,

Sorry to trouble you.... off topic I know but I don't know where else to
ask.

Can any of you experts advise me if these are for real.... can't find them
anywhere except eBay. feedback looks good but at that price I'm just a
little suspicious:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=108982&item=5212614818&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

Maybe they used a 4GB Sony Memory Stick and attached a USB connection?

For £80 seems too good to be true!

Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated.

Kindest regards,


Debi

Well, it isn't a bad product according to reviews. The seller has 120
reviews and a 100% positive feedback rating which is good. A trip to
PriceWatch.com (one of my favorite vending sites) shows that the price there
is actually pretty good. The same person offers the same product for the US
at a decent price. Under $150 with $12 USD additional shipping charges. It's
a decent product, a decent price, and a reputable seller. It's always a risk
when you buy online but that's a risk I think I'd probably take and actually
just might if it appears again. I may just contact the seller and see if
they'll sell me one at this price:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5212458461&category=99247

Same company as you're linking to only it's the US version. Well worth it I
should think. They also have a decent priced Citizen Eco Drive watch
Maybe I'll offer them a bulk order

Cheers Galen,

He's got loads for sale, that was just one example. Just search/type in 4GB
memory stick or view sellers other items.

I was just suspicious that I couldn't see anything on the Sony site or
anywhere else for that matter.

Like you say, he has good feedback and a 4GB Pen drive is pretty cool for
that price!

Regards,


Debi
