Be aware of those two sellers also: hkbobobo , sunfeixia2009. They are selling the identical 32GB SD cards with the same description. Both have around the same amount of feedback count (~1000). Below is my experience.
I purchased from hkbobobo a 32GB SD card. It didn’t arrive after 3 weeks. A quick test indicates the card is corrupted after around 2G of writing data. I was not aware of the H2testtw utility. Contacted the seller and was told “all the SD cards are the same and willing to refund”. Didn’t read the words in-between I thought I was just unlucky then shipped it back for a replacement. It didn’t arrive however.
I suspect this is a scam. People don’t test the card upon throughly upon receiving won’t be able to see the problem. They may even give the sells positive recommendation! The sellers may intentionally delay the shipping to reduce the window for buyers to leave feedback. The address given to ship back the “defective” card is in China though it shows a Hong Kong seller on Ebay. The return address is
YiPei (bobo,Tian shuguang)
Room 601, Shixia dongcun 309,
Futian District,ShenZhen,
P.R.China 518000

This is a very common technique the sellers of fake drives use.
The counterfeit / fake products are made in the ShenZhen area of china (a major source of counterfeit products) and shipped to HongKong for distribution and sale.
Some Ebay sellers us a mail forwarding service that picks up their product and arranges for it to be mailed from HongKong.
A lot of the counterfeit / fake drive sellers use false addresses – both on the shipping package and the indicated return address when you complain.
