That's definitely a pretty good deal... I'm considering it... but then again... I know prices will drop more if I just hold out a littttttttle longer lol. I'm a patient person
I mean, I am 99% sure that it is fake, but then again, if it works, it works.

I'd think it's safe. A few things to consider though.
1. the memory stick has a 99.9% chance of being fake.
2. it will take about 3 weeks to ship the card
3. there are some known errors in things like ps1 emulation and slow read/write times that people have complained about with these fake cards.
Overall, if the card works, it works. "A dollar saved is a dollar earned" type of thing. Many of the fake memory cards have actually been built better now. Many work with ps1 emulation just fine and really... if you have 4gb of space... you won't be writing data to the card so often so it doesn't really matter so much.

I'd ask el loco more about his card actually. I mean... if it works how it is supposed to (minus the reading/ writing times) then it is worth saving $40 IMO.

Well it's $36 + $20 shipping so $56. New memory cards from
www.newegg.com go for about $80-90.

I can tell its fake by the seal and the description on the back. If you are going to buy a fake one dont get it from here. You are overpaying. Look on ebay.com you will find tons for cheaper. I usually buy my 4 GB's for 45 bucks max.

There goes a few tips on how to identify wheather its fake or real. As I previously said its fake because the circular seals.
