Recently I upgraded my mobile (LG U890) for a Smartphone (Nokia N73)...
This phone can be really great with some extras like GMAil, Weather, Maps (free Smart2Go), MiniOpera, MP3, themes, games, etc... BUT with only about 40MB memory, it's quite "limited"...
So I went to a Phone Shop, looking for a Mini SD Card (2GB would do just fine
)... They had a few in store... At ?50 ! So I went to another shop I find the same SanDisk 2GB Mini SD Card for ?60 (a Three Shop in Queensgate, Peterborough)!!!
Back at home I decided to go on the Net and through GPSArena web site, I ended-up at
MyMemory website... The same 2GB Mini SD Card was at ?15.99 (a bit less than ?20 including P&P) !...
Going back to the shop I asled them why such a price difference... And the guy answered it was because off the Net, there were copies !!! Muaahahaha ! I bought one from the Net (received yesterday) and I can tell you that:
1.> It's not a copy... It's exactly the same (including Packaging) than the one from the shop !
2.> It's working very well... And can also be used as an SD Card with the adapter you get with it !...
And this shop didn't get their ?40 margin !!!
