Hi, I have just bought a Sandisk 64gb Extreme Pro SDXC Card 95mb/s card from ebay, on Amazon they are currently £75 and i paid £43.

I got it from this link:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171559999560?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Of cause it says its genuine and that they are a authorised sandisk reseller, but when i get it how will i know its actually a real one?

They are listed as accepting returns etc so if it turns out to be fake i’d like to know how i can look at the card to know its a fake to get my money back.

Of cause it may be real, which would be great

Any help would be great

regards

James

Dear member of SanDisk Community, welcome.

Friend, I see three possibilities: is fake, is generic, or is genuine RP.

1-   Fake: You’ll know when using the card, immediately, because it did not fulfill what he promised.

      So it’s a very high price.

2-  Generic: Unbranded (fake labels), you’ll know when using the card, but after long time, because not fulfill exactly what he promised.

      So it’s  a good price.

3-   Genuine RP: Refurbished Products bought in US and resold in UK.  You’ll know when using the card, because delivers what it promises.

      So it’s a very, very good price…
