well pleased!

Congrats. I hope you haven't bought a lemon.
 
Sounds awesome, as long as it is not a 'fake' I have had 2 SD fakes but you can tell them apart if you look at an original side by side :)

Just won a brand new 16gb scandisk memory card off eBay for £10 including postage :-D

If it says "Scandisk" it may not be such a bargain, the company that make the memory cards are "Sandisk"..........

Personally I'd never buy branded memory off Ebay, especially if the price looks too good to be true, the site is full of fakes.

My bad I'm on my phone and it changes some of my words that it don't recognize. It is sandisk NOT scandisk!

The one and only card I bought of ebay was a sandisk Extreme that turned out to be fake. Give it its due, its still working after several years and transfers just as fast as the real ones.

How did you know it was fake? Also its not off a seller who sells certain things, they are just an average Joe. It was an auction and not buy it now too.

I found a website that showed the differences between real and fake. When you have them side by side is quite obvious. Print quality, markings, shape of label etc.
