it's true. it's rare to find a real memory stick on ebay. stick to retail stores for memory cards.
ps2: v7 scph-39001 - independence exploit - hdloader 0.8c - maxtor 300gb hdd
(+[__]%) psp slim ta-085v1: 6.60 PRO B10

DON'T DO IT, 99.8% of memory cards on ebay are fake.
even if the banner and pics say its real, its fake, you should buy a 4gb from amazon.com or buy.com i heard that tit was on sale for $49.99 or something.
Winning isn't everything...
IT'S THE ONLY THING !

What about amazing.com but not from the store but the people. Since people post up what they have for sale. I guess that could be unsafe like ebay.

on ebay, type " genuine pro duo" and you should get a genuine. the "Camera Pro Shop" shop on ebay sells genuine magic gate supported sticks. I got mine there.

That's only with some of them. Many either don't work at all or they don't have the right amount of space. Lots don't play emulators and ISO's very well either, and can screw your PSP up in an update.

Not to mention some fakes are being sold for full price (as much as the reals on ebay)... To get the right stick, you need good instincts and just alot of luck.
