I wouldn't consider that a good deal at all. You can get them directly from Best Buy for less.

If you're buying from an Amazon or Buy.com 3rd party merchant - you have no assurance that the card isn't pirated. At that point, I think you'd be better off getting the card from ebay or a merchant from froogle.com - since elsewhere, they've been as low as $50. Unless it's changed, a 3rd party vendor on buy.com was selling them for around $60.

I bought mine for $58 from EBAY in November, and while I'm not sure if it's authentic - it's worked great for me.

I'll wait until there are some killer deals on memory - seeing as how I snagged a class 4 8 Gb for $18 shipped just before xmas I don't think I'm willing to pay more than $25 for a 16 GB.class 6. As they get bigger, you really need the faster speed.....

In November they didn't have class 4, I believe they only had class 2. I have a class2 which works perfectly fine, but I do notice a little lag on mine once I put about 8 gigs worth of music on it. I wish I had the class 4 because my class 2 does lag a little when playing music, but not that big of a deal.

Perhaps one day SD and microSD cards will be so cheap we can use them as poker chips!

They are supposedly authentic with retail packaging.
