off freaking ebay. If its too go to be true then it IS. I just paid for a memory stick from some "honesty guy" for 40 dollars and some change (so really no harm done). But I dont want anyone to make the same mistake I did, and i bet others on this forum.

Just spend the extra 20-40 dollars on one from a non-bidding web-site. Now if you excuse me im going to order a good NEW 4gb sandisk memory stick.

EDIT: can anyone tell me or link me a site that has the cheapest 4gb ms

Got mine for 60 USD at Circuit City when it was on sale, now both the SanDisk and Sony 4GB sticks are 100 USD.

Honestly though, theres not too many reasons to get a 4GB stick. Either you like watching movies on your PSP, or for games that you didn't exactly pay for...

I got my 4gb Lexar for $40 (total/shipped) off of Frys.com, and they had it for $30 not too long ago as well. I've been using it a lot and its just as good as my Sandisk card, so I can highly recommend it. Also, Circuit Ctiy drops the price down to $50 from time to time...but who knows if they'll do it again. Best deals that pop up on sites though are on Frys.com, Buy.com, and Newegg.com...at least from what I've seen anyways.

I'm glad I haven't spent the money on eBay. People are such scammers.

I bought two memory sticks from ebay, a 2GB ($30 with shipping)and a 4GB ($40 with free shipping)and I've had no problems. Both were brand new in the package, the 2GB was actually a Sony High Speed stick. Perhaps you just had a bad experience.

I saw at Fry's Electronics that the 4gb is selling for 40-50 dollars. But not all states in the US have that store.
