I dont see why you wouldnt, i got two 16gb ones for £35.98 from them with no problems about 3 weeks ago.
I would try mymemory i think they may be even cheaper there
Just had a look and Mymemory are selling the same for £9.99

£10.99/£10.69 for the 8GB version too
Why are they so cheap compared to SanDisk? Have people used them before and are they reliable?
These are absolute rubbish - have a look at the 16GB thread regarding these (http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=102360&highlight=kingston)
They cause all sorts of problems,and are no where near 133x speed.

Kingston Elite Pro are way down the list compared to decent 133x ones... these are cheap for a very good reason IMHO.
Rather sweeping statements !. The 16GB Kingston CF cards seem to have a problem with Nikon cameras :shrug: (probably can't handle the noise ) but work for everybody else
downloaded 120mb in 25 seconds so yes they are pretty quick and didnt lose any quality

No, thats not quick. Its less than 5 megs a second. Even decent 40x brands are twice as fast
I'll be honest - I have a real bee in my bonnet about these cards - having being burnt, but they just are not what they are claimed to be.

They are barely faster than microdrive.
I really don't think these are good cards - they are WAY slower than advertised, and unreliable.
