Confirmation before buying memory cards

MP3 players Sansa Fuze

Well, i’ve fall into Kingston memory cards and can’t transfer video nor music into it. Now, i will try for the Sandisk memory card. Would you all confirm that it should work for transferring musics AND videos (8gig) ?

Will the Fuze recognize the playlists transfered to the Sandisk memory card because on my Kingston, i’ve never been able to see my playlists, only some songs spreading all over.

thank you very much in advance.

The Kingston cards have been mentioned many times as being problematic, especially with video.  I’m spoiled, using only genuine SanDisk cards with no problems.

Be careful with cards purchased from sources like eBay, as there are plenty of counterfeit cards out there.  If the price looks too good to be true, it might be a bogus card.  Look for a reputable vendor that guarantees their sales.

…oh so you mean something like this on eBay, “32GB TF Memory Card 32G Micro SD SDHC MicroSDHC MicroSD” for $2.89 and free shipping is probably not the REAL deal? :wink:

But yet I can’t believe they are getting bids on it.

i would not recommend ebay at all. people get scammed on flash memory there all the time. i would only recommend purchasing for authorized resellers or a local brick and mortar store.

No kidding. I had a classmate who told us that he was able to get “new and sealed” Sony memory cards on eBay for an unbelievably low price and free shipping. I told him that they were most likely fakes and he replied, “No, they’re not because they work.”

For a reliable online source I’ve had no problems with Amazon.

Keep in mind though that buying from one of their “partners” is almost the same as eBay so if you want to be sure make sure when you choose an item sold and shipped by Amazon not xyz-partner co. but listed on Amazon.

In my experience if the price is less than the Amazon “with free shipping on order > $25” deal then the chance it’s fake is much greater.

Really, no one buys original quality product from the manufacturer and then sells at a loss online to make money…
