well i think that 98% of memory sticks on ebay are fake
because on ms the writing should look like it was printed not like a sticker you really should be carefull when youre looking.

listen to this... i bought my 2gb from ebay awhile ago and it works perfectly. Now i just bought a 4gb from ebay and everything in my gut is telling me its fake, first off i won it @ $98(i waznt lucky), the guy's feedback is private(but at 99.0%), and the card in the stock photo doesnt even say sony. Even though it sounds fake will it work as good/almost as good as the official one? My 2gb is most likely fake but i have no problem it. So what are your opinions about the ebay 4gb? have any of you purchased a seemingly fake 4gb from ebay?

I just got a 4GB memory stick from ebay too, some seller named blown-z, 99% sure it's fake, but I hope it works until 8GB sticks are cheap.

I think sandisk ms are ok, can't really see much difference in read/write speeds.
