Just received this from ebay. From a seller with tons of 100% feedback.
Its definitely fake. Weird syntax, sandisk website has comma seperators, front package pixelated. Barcode scan on the reverse goes nowhere…
Am I correct?
The printing on the card itself doesn’t look great.
Some interesting info here: HappyBison.com: tech, research and bison
And you can always call up Sandisk customer support and they’d tell you if the serial is fake or not.

Thanks, I am so DONE with eBay. Where can I go to get a card that is 100% genuine?
Amazon is your best bet (directly sold by Amazon though as not all Marketplace traders are trustworthy).

I don’t know what you paid for your eBay one, but the same card is on Amazon for £19.

Interestingly enough I just put the card through a testing program. It writes to 117gb. 94kb error upon verification of written files. It also reads and writes much faster than either my Fuji card and 3 times faster than my genuine sandisk extreme…odd.
Sorry you got scammed mate, but thanks for sharing the photos, it might prevent others being caught out too.
As above, I too would only ever buy from either a high street shop (Argos et al), or Amazon direct.
Chase up the seller and paypal, they’ll cover you under buyer protection

Hi all
got a deal on Amazon back in March,only used this card twice & on reading video shooting can sometimes be choppy also due to fake cards,
Which when I put the sd card in my mac looked pretty crap.I don’t know much about these I no longer have the package,card looks a bit wish wash,any thoughts anyone ? Does this look like the real deal I looked on google mixed comments,Comments appreciated sorry to bother you all
Thankyou
Was it proper Amazon or ‘fulfilled’ by them ?
Unlikely to be fake if proper Amazon sale
You can also try run a test on it and post the results ?
Was by one of there sellers not Amazon
Thanks
On your Mac.
Sorry I’ll look & let you know Thankyou
