They said they are sending me the adaptor seporatly. Not sure why. Here is the email i got through them from amazon.
Hello There My Friend, I Wish that everything is great and You Are Okay, Be Noted that You will get 2 Shipments or 2 Package the first will have the SAMSUNG Micro SD 128gb And the Second will have the Adapter for the SD, If You face any problem with our items Just let us know here and we will solve any problem according to your wish and as you like, Thank you And best wishes!
good to know youre getting a fake adapter with your fake card lol.
It could be that a version of this is sold overseas, which does not include the sd card adapter.
However, what does worry me is the text for '128' looks slightly off imo. You can notice it more with the '2', but it seems a little stretched or elongated vertically.
I would try some sd card benchmarks
Find out easily... http://www.heise.de/download/h2testw.html
Looks fake. I purchased the same card from Amazon (ships & sold by Amazon) and it came with the adapter. If it was shipped from a third party it more then likely is fake.
Plus, why would your model number be 16D when it's a 128GB card?
Here's the one I got:
YEAHP, it's fake lolol. Time to call amazon and my credit card.
Money credited back to my account including my points. Knew amazon would back me up as well as my credit card, so i took a shot at it.
I never, ever buy flash memory from amazon or ebay... 99% of them are fake. You are pretty much stuck buying from authorized resellers as there are so many fakes you are more likely to get a fake one than not (most people just don't know it yet because they didn't hit the upper limit of the actual storage capacity which has been faked).

Just make sure if you purchase anything from Amazon that it says "Ships & Sold by Amazon" and you should be fine.

Hi,
does anyone know whether this is a real or fake offer:
http://cgi.ebay.com/2GB-SanDisk-mic...151690QQihZ011QQcategoryZ118260QQcmdZViewItem
They don't offer a noname product but mark it "Sandisk" (I can remember that the first *Mini*SD - not MicroSD - on the market was a no-name product, Sandisk only followed a while later).
USD 99 wouldn't be too much for this high-end flash memory, but for a fake it definitely would be too much.
(Of course also the additional costs for shipping and import tax would have to be taken into account, but maybe a dealer could be found to import it and retail it to us - provided this product really exists already.)
Any feedback on that ?
The MicroSD 2GB is the real deal, and so is the eBay seller flashman852. I have done business with him before and right now I am awaiting yet another flash card from him. He has positive feedback from 112.000+ unique users and negative from less than 1.000. I'd say that's a pretty good record, although now perfect.

I agree. It's the real deal. MicroSD started life as TransFlash then got adopted as an SD format, since it's compatible via an SD adaptor.
I bought one from another eBay seller on July 2nd for my 8125. It's worked fine since then and I have a bit over 1.5Gb of data on it, with room to spare
http://stores.ebay.com/eDigital-Express
Seems the Seller I used only charges half the price too. And they were very pleasant to deal with.

No you didn't.
MicoSD IS NOT MiniSD.
Oops, you're right. I didn't know there was such a thing.
Well mine didn't appear to be genuine
Bought a Qumox card from the same ebay seller flashman852.
Worked fine for initial tests but when the card started to fill it broke.
Now it wont even format and they are being difficult about a refund.
Will now only buy direct from Amazon, 7 Day shop or similar reputable seller.
Search for an article using fakeflashtest.

or you could just avoid buying flash from ebay all together.
Whatever works.
I was wandering around my hometown yesterday pricing 16GB cards. The cheapest price in a shop was EU80 -- nearly $100.
I believe there are reputable sellers on ebay selling for less than half that.

I got my 16gb card for 2.50$
That's great, but be careful. The biggest scam out there is 2 and 4gb cards programmed to look like 16gb to your operating system. The only way to test them is with a free utility called h2testw.
Hopefully your card is a good one. Mine turned out to be 2gb.

There are a lot of Kingston 32GB microsd cards being sold out of the US via Ebay for $199+, and they're all fake. Only Sandisk have released the 32GB versions.
Be warned..
For those in the US, just buy from Newegg. I got 3 16 GB microSD cards for $41 apiece.
you can also tell by filling up the card
if it doesn't go past 2gb, it's not a 16gb card

I've not touched eBay memory cards since I bought a Sony from a 'trusted' seller. Turned out to be a cheap knock off. I had my money back in a day after suggesting to the seller that I'd be contacting Sony's fraud investigations team if I didn't get prompt action.
Then I contacted them anyway

They "Weren't just Selling them".
Their supplier sent them a batch of fake CPUs. Once new-egg discovered the error, they refunded money and offered discounts and also dropped the supplier.
It was clearly an accident.

wth. You sound like you work for a certain political spin machine.
Clearly, anyone with half a brain, can see that Newegg expediently rectified the situation. If anything, this situation with the bunk processors would put Newegg in an even more trustworthy position than they were prior to this unfortunate incident.
i recommend newegg we have 4 a-data 16gb class 6 cards from them.. work great.. stay away from 16gb sandisk cards.. i have had 5 failures with these (their 8gb cards work fine though)

I bought two Sandisk 16gb Class 6 cards for £40 each from a Asian in Canada. When I received, I benchmarked them & found that they didn't even perform at a class 2 level.
I put on a claim on ebay & contacted seller. The seller said that there are alot of fakes on ebay & that I has sold thousand in his store without any complaints. I got a full refund.
I bought a Genuine Team 16GB Microsd Class 6 from another seller ebay id: taiwanlien. I have benchmarked it and everything.
If anybody does want to buy memory from ebay buy it from this seller taiwanlien.

Was wondering if anybody ever bought one of these 32gb sdhc cards and if so, then what was their experience like?

they are usually fake. they change the headers so when you plug it in it sees 32gb, but space runs out before you get to 1-2gb
not to say all are fake though. make sure your seller is well respected
I have one being shipped. I found out afterwards that these guys hack 2Gb cards to make them seem to be 32gig, but if you test them you get 29.2/32 BAD. ...from what I hear.
Also, It seems like the companies will give you a refund if you tell them you will give them good feedback for refunding your purchase?? Kind of scammy, to get more people to think they are good, but hey YOU get YOUR money back right.
I will report back when it arrives. I do not have high hopes, I paid less than $30.
I got some great 16gb's off ebay though for $27-30.

The eBay memory card arrived, and it is definitely fake. I am not that upset since I knew it was going to be fake. ($28 for 32GB was the clue)
The test returned 1.9 GB good. I have purchased 2 16gb cads from ebay previously that are both flawless. So they aren't all fake.
Time to fight for the refund.

Try putting 29GB of data on it first before you celebrate. The fake ones all report the correct size, but are really smaller cards and can't hold anything more than the original size.

Hi, i just had a (bad?) idea, since there is a lot of fake micro sd card on ebay and people are being scammed, i were wondering how paypal are handling the fake claims? Do they actually refund you the cards? Or do they need you to send the fake card back? Were just wondering if it would be possible to actually buy a 32gb fake card (which should be around4/8gb?) and actually having a total refund for it since it is not as advertised? (free fake 32gb SD?) Yeah, i know it sounds crazy but scamming a scammer is it so bad?
So were just wondering to the ones who actually got scammed and filed a claim... Is it such a pain in the butt or could it actually be done?
Well just a though i had...
hey there,
do you think thats fake : h t t p : / / cgi.ebay.co.uk/32GB-MEMORETTE-MICRO-SD-SDHC-CARD-CLASS-10-FREE-Adapter-/230588940502?pt=UK_AudioTVElectronics_PDAsAccessories_MemoryCards&hash=item35b02c00d6#ht_4977wt_717
(remove the spaces)
i wish it is not fake.
The fake micro sd card scam works on ebay because in almost every case it'll cost more for the buyer to send the card back then what they paid for it. Paypal won't refund your money until you have proof the item was received by the seller. This usually means tracking and signature is required when you ship it back. Most of these fake sellers are from china or hong kong which with the tracking/signature requirements ends up costing $20+ which you don't get back when you get you're refund.

I've had experience of fake SD cards bought on ebay.
I was cought myself about 4 years ago, it took ages and eventually I got a full refund and got to keep the card.
Recently a couple of friends had the same problem, this time both got full refunds almost immediately.
I was given the task of trying to reformat to a usable state...
However unlike fake usb memory, which can be reformatted quite easily, with freely available software, SD cards seem to be practically impossible to reformat correctly.
I have on "16 GB" card that I have managed to use as 512MB, but even that causes arror and data loss at random points.
I bought a card that turned out to fake, so I contacted the seller and threatened to report them to ebay and paypal and I got a refund. Kept the card too.
don't even bother with ebay to anyone looking at this thread. I just found out that my card is actually a 8gb card said to be 16gb (i believe they can resize it so the phone thinks its 16gb?) and once i passed 8gb nothing saves on my sd card, and I went back to get my refund but the user is no longer a member! lucky for me...

Paypal Australia requires that the item be returned with an online tracking number. Minimum cost to China, $50.
The system seems to be set up specifically to penalise the victim.
After all, that way Paypal gets to keep their commission.

As much as I dislike PayPal, it's really not set up to hurt the victim. Who would sell using PayPal when, in the event that someone simply "claims" that item is a fake or not as advertised, they get completely screwed over? I definitely would not be setting up an online business when each and every buyer I have can click a few buttons and receive a full refund and the product he purchased, coming straight out of my pocket.
It's not to rip off the buyers, but sometimes it's hard to please everyone.
Hmm I bought an 16 GB card on eBay but during the uploading of the data on it I noticed the card had already a name and some files on it...So it was not new at all!
A simple mail to the vendor was enough to receive another, new, card and a stamp to send the first card back...
The vendor had a spotless score...
I think you always take a risk while buying on eBay...
I found a great deal on a 64gb micro SDXD card on ebay for $13. The card works fine but is really only 32gb. Although disappointed, I didn't bother sending it back because $13 is still a lot cheaper than I can buy a 32gb micro SD card locally. However, after reading a number of posts it appears that the modify these to read like they are full capacity but begin overwriting data once they reach their real capacity. I see many for sale in the same white and blue packaging and won't buy one again. What amazes me is the high seller ratings these guys seem to have on Ebay.
I found out about two weeks ago there was a 128 gb micro sd out, and it was going for $200, but if you pre ordered it with Amazon you only paid $119.00, but you had to wait 4-6 weeks for it to be sent to you. I didn't have the extra funds in my account to get this.
So i said to myself i'll wait, and get it when i have to extra cash to spend. Now that i have it, Amazon is no longer selling it at that price.

Here are my rules with buying flash:
1) "never buy flash sd or micro sd from online retailer. Period!
2) only buy flash sd or micro sd from a store with an excellent return policy such as bestbuy or futureshop.
Yes you'll pay premium dollar but the reality is there are fake memory cards everywhere and the retalers don't even know they are selling it and if they don't even know they are selling it, good luck proving it!
Also 69 is way too good to be true! you need at least clash 10 on android and and heck Sandisk is the only memory card manufacturer that has proven their use on android, if it not Sandisk, forget about it!
I hate fake memory cards, worst thing about them is how much time you invest in trying to fix them! You spend the first week in denial that you could possibly been sold a fake memory card and spend all this time formatting and re-formatting them with different applications and operating systems, try different roms, different kernel combinations, posting help because your rom is acting buggy, lose data? and all the while reason for all your woes has been due to using a fake memory card.
Very probably fake, i was buying mine twp months ago and the one with the largest storage was 64 gb. More than enough for 99% of uses.
That wouldn't even work for our phone. You going to use it on the Find 7 or something?

Works just fine, as has been shown numerous times. At the moment the specsheet for the S4 was made there were no 128GB cards.
So I assume you just looked at the specs to get that (wrong) assumption?

128GB SD cards will work with our phones with a SD to MicroSD adapter. i use one now.
in fact it will go up to 256GB
NOTE must be formatted to Fat32 to best compatability, also depending on your kernel.
Sandisk are making some (soon) though?
The 128GB card works on the S4, even though I have mine in my Note 3.

I believe he was talking about the Samsung from Newegg. This is definitely fake. As said before, anything above 32GB is SDXC, not SDHC like in the picture. Also Samsung has not yet releases 128GB. Also, look at the picture. "12" is of a different font /size than "8". The reviews for the seller "Redtagonline" has 2 stars out of 5. Just preorder from Amazon. Make sure you format it as either Fat32, or eXFat if your Kernel supports exFat

Have you actually copied files/data to it to fill it to its advertised capacity?
Sent from my rooted GS4 running GoldenEye 26 while holding a homebrew.
Man, Amazon still advertising @ $119 but been out of stock forever.
I have the Sandisk 128gb from Amazon in my S4, it works great without problem.
The micro sd to SD card adapter that comes with the micro SD did not work with either PC or Mac, so I had to plug my card into my card reader instead, which worked fine.

Here are my rules with buying flash:
1) "never buy flash sd or micro sd from online retailer. Period!
2) only buy flash sd or micro sd from a store with an excellent return policy such as bestbuy or futureshop.
Yes you'll pay premium dollar but the reality is there are fake memory cards everywhere and the retalers don't even know they are selling it and if they don't even know they are selling it, good luck proving it!
Also 69 is way too good to be true! you need at least clash 10 on android and and heck Sandisk is the only memory card manufacturer that has proven their use on android, if it not Sandisk, forget about it!
I hate fake memory cards, worst thing about them is how much time you invest in trying to fix them! You spend the first week in denial that you could possibly been sold a fake memory card and spend all this time formatting and re-formatting them with different applications and operating systems, try different roms, different kernel combinations, posting help because your rom is acting buggy, lose data? and all the while reason for all your woes has been due to using a fake memory card.

I've had better luck with returns with Amazon than with Worst Buy which will never get my business again. To each his own.
