the only reason why this might be a 'warm' deal is that you are worry about using generic (aka FAKE) memory stick


FYI:
I have a 'generic' 2gb and 4gb which I brought from DX, and both worked flawlessly so far.

Thats the regular price, its been that way for a while.

I've bought a few cards from DX before, and 1 of my psp cards ended up being a very low quality fake in terms of the build of the plastic material itself; it cracked and fell apart, right where the visible metal part is. I think if I had inspected it more carefully upon receipt, I could have sent it back. By the time it did this, it was too late. I seem to recall problems with my spouse's psp not being able to tell that a fake card was inserted, as well. I wonder if there is a good PM opportunity on this deal.

Why not get the Pro Duo Duo Adaptor and put in 2 4Gb Mirco SD which makes it 8gb. A little more expansive but that's what I use for my PSP!

"This deal is Luke."

"Luke-warm sir?"

"No, Luke Skywalker ya f***in' inbred!"

yes, it do shows it as a regular price on the FS site. BUT BB/Sony/other major stores still sells these for at least $10-$20 more so I thought people might not notice it.

8g for 25 should be the norm soon. we`ll see

Sold out in Brampton when I was looking to pick one up but the Sandisk 4gb card went down to $24.99 as well so picked it up. For some reason data transfer seems slower then my Sony card.

Oh man... I still remember the days when I paid $80 for 2GB...

I can remember when I paid about $200 for a 2GB from Taiwan and it was still cheaper thasn the $249 plus taxes that it was here.

ive seen sandisk 8gb on sale for $39.99 a few times at ncix

I got lucky and picked one of these up from Bestbuy a few months ago for $9.99. Not sure if it was a price error or not at the time.

You mean it's really genuine. I would have never thought so.

ya, deal is dead.

also remember that the new pspgo will use a different mem stick (friggen sony!) so i see these getting cheaper because of it.
